Product Overview
The RF-S55-210mm F5-7.1 IS STM telephoto zoom lens is a versatile choice for photographers and videographers seeking added range in their gear. Compact and light, it offers Optical Image Stabilization for up to 4.5* stops of shake correction or up to 7.0* stops when used with EOS R series cameras featuring In-Body Image Stabilizer (IBIS). This lens significantly extends the camera's reach, ensuring sharp images of distant subjects even when handheld. Featuring Canon's STM stepping motor, it enables smooth and silent Movie Servo AF for continuous focus adjustments. With two UD lens elements reducing chromatic aberration, it delivers excellent image quality, high resolution, and contrast. The 7-blade circular aperture produces pleasing, soft backgrounds. Its compact design, utilizing a mechanical six-group zoom system, achieves a maximum magnification of 0.28x at the telephoto end, with minimum focusing distances of 2.4 ft./0.73m (at 210mm) and 3.2 ft./1.0m (at 55mm).
