It has potential

This lens offers a relatively affordable way of getting into the VR world. The idea is good but the execution is lacking. - For some unknown reason the lens requires calibration. I'm not sure why it was so hard to have the left and right lenses always in sync? - 60 mm IPD. Why not the standard 64? - The VR utility produces files without special metadata required for Apple Vision Pro. Why? The only way to view the exported videos on AVP is via 3rd party video players. - The lens exhibits a moderate amount of CA. - The cheaper APS-C variant offers initial AF, but this lens doesn't. - Missing a VR conversion plugin for DaVinci Resolve. Who's using Adobe Premiere in 2024??? Adobe is a joke, not for serious editing. - For another unknown reason Canon is using a 3rd party to process the VR utility subscriptions. I bet the subscription could be cheaper if no 3rd party would be involved. Overall, the lens is ok but as a product as a whole it is half baked. Luckily the software-related problems can be fixed, but I don't see any movement from Canon yet.

Desperately Seeking Apple Vision Pro Support

This is the perfect lens for taking stills and Movies for viewing on the Apple Vision Pro. Or it would be if the Canon software offered output to a file format that was compatible with the Vision Pro along with instructions.

Useless for 3D still image processing

I bought this lens specifically to do 3D still image picture-taking. The canon VR software does not even shows the still 3D jpeg file names. I cannot do any still 3D image processing at all. Talked to Canon and they say the VR software does not be able to process 3D still images. What a total waste of this lens if you cannot process any 3D still image.

Terrible!

The design inhibits a full 180 with lens obstructions on both sides - terrible for many uses of a 180. The requirement to pay a subscription for software to work with the images after already buying the camera is outrageous. And the software is also terribly designed, making it very hard to adapt the images, particularly the photographic ones, for diverse uses. The interaction with Adobe is also remarkably limited and poor. As a Canon user over many generations of cameras and lenses, this lens ranks as a lowest point.

Its good for what its intended for

By TaberMedis

I bought it to vr tours for real estate developers for commercial projects.

Discover the transformative power of the RF 5.2mm f/2.8 L Dual Fisheye 3D VR Lens, a revolutionary addition to the Canon EOS VR System. This innovative lens, when paired with the EOS R5 camera (updated with firmware 1.5.0 or higher) and Canon's VR software solutions, allows you to create immersive 3D content that can be experienced on compatible head mount displays, including the Oculus Quest 2 and more.

This lens is the world's first digital interchangeable lens capable of capturing stereoscopic 3D 180-degree VR imagery on a single image sensor. This groundbreaking feature allows creators to transition from traditional stills or video shooting to stereoscopic 3D capture with a simple lens swap.

The RF 5.2mm f/2.8 L Dual Fisheye lens features a meticulously engineered folded optical design. The dual high-performance L-series fisheye lenses combine imagery onto a single image sensor, delivering impressive results to a single file. This unique feature simplifies your workflow by eliminating the need to sync and stitch multiple video files.

The lens and EOS R5 camera pairing enables high-resolution video recording at up to 8K DCI 30p and 4K DCI 60p. This lens is designed specifically to deliver outstanding stereoscopic 3D imagery, featuring dual 5.2mm fisheye lenses positioned with 60mm of spacing between Left and Right Lens centers. This provides an interpupillary distance closely resembling human vision with a natural parallax for a powerful, immersive experience.

The RF 5.2mm f/2.8 L Dual Fisheye lens is part of Canon's EOS VR System, which includes the EOS VR Utility software and the EOS VR Plug-in software for Adobe Premiere Pro users. These subscription-based software solutions (currently in development with availability and details to follow on or about early 2022) streamline your editing process and allow for convenient post-production.

This lens also comes with a 3Pod V3AH 3-Section Aluminum Video Tripod with 2-Way Fluid Head, providing stability and precision for your VR shooting. A cleaning kit is included to ensure your lens and camera remain in optimal condition.

Experience the future of VR content creation with the RF 5.2mm f/2.8 L Dual Fisheye 3D VR Lens. Whether you're a creative professional, industry newcomer, or simply looking to bring your audience into your story, this lens offers a new dimension of storytelling possibilities.
