Canon RF 15-35mm F2.8L IS USM Lens Overview

The Canon RF 15-35mm F2.8L IS USM lens is an exceptional wide-angle zoom unmatched in its versatility. Landscape photographers will love its ultra-wide 15-35mm focal range for capturing grand vistas and emphasizing subjects against expansive backgrounds. Its bright F/2.8 aperture affords beautiful background separation while 5-stops of optical image stabilisation allow tack-sharp images even when shooting handheld in low light.

Built for both photographers and videographers, the RF 15-35mm delivers stellar optical quality and fast, near-silent autofocus powered by a Nano USM focus motor. From sweeping landscapes to cramped interiors, it captures ultra-wide perspectives perfect for real estate and architecture photography. Vloggers will appreciate the enhanced storytelling ability of 15mm establishing shots.

With sophisticated technologies like ASC lens coatings to suppress flare and ghosting, plus super spectra coatings to boost contrast and colour fidelity, the RF 15-35mm works beautifully even in difficult lighting. Edge-to-edge sharpness and resistance to chromatic aberration maintain image quality across the frame.

Canon RF 15-35mm F/2.8L IS USM Lens Features In Detail

Ultra Wide-Angle Zoom Range

With an ultra-wide-angle zoom range spanning 15-35mm, this lens captures breathtakingly expansive perspectives perfect for sprawling landscapes, cramped interiors, majestic architecture and dramatic establishing shots. The 15mm end allows incredible 115° views that emphasise subjects against vast backdrops. From fisheye-like vistas to standard wide-angle coverage, it adapts to any scene.

Bright f/2.8 Aperture

The bright f/2.8 constant aperture maintains exceptional brightness across the entire zoom range. This allows for silky background blur at wider focal lengths and great low-light performance when handholding. Compared to f/4 ultra-wide zooms, the extra stop affords more control over the depth of field for selective focus. This creative flexibility suits artistic shooters.

5-Stop Image Stabilisation

In a first for Canon ultra-wide lenses, the RF 15-35mm features up to 5 stops of optical stabilisation to steady handheld shots. This stabilisation vastly reduces image blur when filming video or capturing stills in low ambient light. Handhold slow shutter speeds and still get tack-sharp images thanks to this advanced technology.

Nano USM Focus Motor

Canon’s tiny Nano USM autofocus motor drives the lens’ faster, quieter and more precise autofocus. This suits both stills and video use, providing smooth focus transitions and stable tracking to keep subjects sharply focused. For tricky shots like vlogs or real estate walkthroughs, this AF excels.

L-Series Design & Construction

With robust weather-sealed construction, the RF 15-35mm meets L-series standards for durability and reliability. Its lens elements feature protective fluorine coatings while dials and switches feel solid. Ready for any shooting scenario, it stands up to challenging conditions from the cold to sandy deserts.

Customisable Control Ring

The programmable control ring allows custom settings like aperture, ISO or white balance to be smoothly adjusted while shooting. Its intuitive positioning and clickless or clicked operation let photographers and videographers finesse settings on the fly without glancing away from the viewfinder.

Advanced Optical Technologies

A complex array of Ultra-Low Dispersion, Aspherical and Super UD lens elements suppress chromatic and spherical aberration for brilliant corner-to-corner image sharpness and clarity. Lens coatings like Air Sphere and Super Spectra boost contrast and minimise flare for excellent results when shooting into light sources.

Canon 15-35mm Compatibility

The 15-35mm Lens is compatible with the following Canon EOS R series mirrorless cameras:

What We Think of the Canon RF 15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM Lens Review

After extensively testing the Canon RF 15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM lens, we are thoroughly impressed with its performance and versatility as an ultra wide-angle zoom lens. Its robust physical design meets the premium standards that photographers expect from Canon L-series glass. The weather sealed construction inspires confidence to carry this lens anywhere without worry, from deserts to mountains.

Optically, the RF 15-35mm delivers outstanding results across its ultra wide 15-35mm focal range. Images show excellent sharpness and clarity even at f/2.8, with beautiful background separation when focused up close. The fast aperture also helps capture standout low light images. Videographers will appreciate the 5-stop optical stabilisation for steady handheld shooting.

The USM autofocus motor focuses quickly, quietly and accurately on both still and moving subjects while the customisable control ring allows fluid adjustment of settings when shooting. As a creative tool, we love how the 15mm perspective emphasises subjects against epic backdrops. Real estate photographers will enjoy showcasing even cramped rooms.
