Expressive power in both video and stills
The 35mm focal length closely mirrors the natural human field of vision, allowing the camera to capture scenes just as the creator sees them. With a maximum f/1.4 aperture, this lens delivers a beautiful bokeh effect, allowing subjects to stand out from the background in both videos and photos.
Exceptional optical performance
Delivers high image quality from the center to the edges of the frame. Two UD lenses effectively correct color aberration, while two GMo aspherical lenses minimize spherical aberration and image distortion.
Iris ring for manual aperture control
Experience cinematic control while shooting videos with the iris ring, providing manual aperture control to adjust the depth of field. The smooth, light torque is perfect for minimizing external noise during movie recording.
Electronic floating focus control
Canon’s first RF lens to feature a VCM (Voice Coil Motor) paired with Nano USM for electronic floating focus control. The VCM drives the heavier focusing lens group, while the compact, energy-efficient Nano USM moves the lighter floating lens, ensuring fast, reliable, and quiet autofocus.
Focus Breathing Control
The RF 35mm f/1.4L VCM minimizes focus breathing, ensuring stable video compositions. The combination of VCM and Nano USM actuators optically reduces breathing at all focus positions, making it ideal for videos, even on cameras without electronic breathing correction.
L-Series design and reliability
Canon’s L-series lenses are built for durability and dependability, allowing creators to shoot in challenging environments. The RF 35mm f/1.4L VCM offers customizability with a lens control ring, focus ring, lens function button, iris ring, and rear filter holder to accommodate various shooting styles.
