Review Summary
2024-01-10T19:00:00
I've been using this lens for almost a year now. This lens coupled with the R5 makes an exceptional lens for us Florida bird photographers. As with all the big L lenses (I also have the 600 f/4) the image quality is exceptional. The lighter weight makes it pretty easy to hand hold?but the best images come from the tripod. It's not going to be a lens for everyone, but if you're a serious bird photographer you'll love this one.

I've been using this lens for almost a year now. This lens coupled with the R5 makes an exceptional lens for us Florida bird photographers. As with all the big L lenses (I also have the 600 f/4) the image quality is exceptional. The lighter weight makes it pretty easy to hand hold?but the best images come from the tripod. It's not going to be a lens for everyone, but if you're a serious bird photographer you'll love this one.
It's the Canon RF 800mm f/5.6 L IS USM Lens, a high-quality, powerful, and reliable addition to the EOS R System, designed for professional and advanced photographers. This innovative lens is perfect for capturing wildlife, motorsports, and more, with its superior image quality and super-telephoto capabilities.
The lens features two large-diameter Fluorite elements, one Super UD (Ultra-low Dispersion), and one UD-glass element, all working together to provide outstanding correction of color fringing. This, combined with the Air Sphere Coating, ensures superb contrast and sharpness, delivering images that are sharp from center to corner, even at maximum aperture.
With an 800mm focal length, this lens enables you to achieve incredibly soft backgrounds and tremendous visual impact. The Optical Image Stabilization provides up to 4.5 stops of shake correction, ensuring consistent and sharp results, even in challenging conditions.
The RF 800mm f/5.6 L IS USM Lens is impressively light at 6.9 lbs., making it versatile and easy to handle. It's compatible with both RF1.4x and RF2x Extenders, allowing for even more reach at focal lengths of 1120mm and 1600mm.
The lens also features a customizable Electronic Focus Ring, with Manual Focus Capability during SERVO AF, and two focus presets that allow you to instantly return to one or two memorized focus distances. The 9-blade circular aperture ensures beautiful, soft backgrounds, adding depth and intensity to your photos and videos.
Constructed to the durable L-series specifications, the RF 800mm f/5.6 L IS USM Lens is dust and water-resistant, with a fluorine coating on the front element for easy cleaning. This lens is not just a tool, but a gateway to capturing the world in stunning detail.
