Product details

Web ID: 17796350

A fixed ultra-wide angle lens changes how you see your image before you even press the shutter button. This set contains Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM Lens, Lens Cap E-43, and Lens Dust Cap RF.

  • Product Features

    • A bright f/2.8 lens combined with the full-frame sensor of each EOS R series digital camera allows for fast shutter speeds in low light with less noise and the ability to beautifully blur the background in close-up shooting or video recording.
    • Using a stepping motor in the RF16mm F2.8 STM lens aids in natural focus while following a subject using Servo AF in still photography, or clean transitions when repositioning to another subject with Movie Servo AF in video applications.
    • Canon s STM focus motors are especially renowned for their smoothness in focus changes during live video recording, as well as brisk AF during still-image shooting.
    • The compact size and light weight of the lens makes it an ideal companion on long hikes and excursions. It is also handy for a day out in the city and when you want to be creative with multiple prime lenses.
    • Getting close to your subject with the RF16mm F2.8 STM lens means purposefully distorting your subject, creating an enjoyable new look while also keeping more of the background in frame for visual interest.

Wide angle = Wide Range of Possibility

This has become a go to lens for me in many scenarios. I would give it 6 stars based on the price.

Surprisingly great close up photos

I got this to do real estate photos but had more fun with the close ups.

Great little landscape lens

A fantastic little lens for landscapes and wide angle shots. Those serious about videography would probably want a quieter autofocus system (this is STM instead of USM) since this does have a bit noisier autofocus and some focus breathing, but for the occasional videos I do it’s totally adequate. Images look great from this lens, and it’s light and easily portable. The only issue is there is a bit of barrel distortion from this lens given the size and price point, but that can be corrected in post if shooting RAW.

Good Every-Day Addition

A 5-star rating for this little lens? Yes, but a caveat: the rating is relative to expectations, price, etc. That is to say, I’m not giving up my 70-200 f/2.8 for this lens. That’s not what the 16 f/2.8 represents in my bag. Here’s where it fits and why I feel it’s a great purchase: because of its size and quality, it has become an every-day carry and compliment to my 50 f/1.8. It fills both a need and a void. When the chips are down, would I rather shoot my EF 17-35 f/2.8? Good question and I don’t know just yet. What I do know is that I’ll shoot this 16mm more frequently because it travels so well and compact. I can put it, the 50, a body, and spare battery in a small cube, put that in my backpack and — by everyone else’s knowledge — I’m not lugging my gear around.

Great lens for the price.

Great wide angle lens. As sharp as you would expect. Great for video/vlogging as well as a wonderful (and light weight) walk around lens.

Great lens

This lens is so crisp. I love shooting with it. Incredibly wide and with software lens corrections, the distortion is non-existent.
