  • Low cost, Good AF, Well-corrected distortion, Smallest, lightest 100-400mm lens
  • AF not as fast as the L series, Limited max apertures, No tripod mount
  • When producing a lower cost lens a lot of difficult compromises need to be made, and in many ways how those compromises are chosen is more critical than those when the budget is much higher. One wrong move and the resultant performance can mean even a low...

  • Abstract:  One would think a more expensive lens would outdo a cheaper lens. I mean, for the most part, that's absolutely true. There are lots of big factors to take into consideration with lenses. There's autofocus, image quality, weather sealing, and other tech. B...

  • Abstract:  The Canon RF 100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM ($649.99) is an ideal lens for photographers interested in capturing telephoto subjects—such as wildlife, team sports, and other distant action—but who aren't able to afford the pro-grade RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM...

  Published: 2021-09-20, Author: Dan , review by: digitalcameraworld.com

  • Very compact, Max 6 stops of IS, Affordable
  • f/5.6-8 isn't very fast, No weather sealing, Will AF keep up on R/RP
  • Initial impressions are that the Canon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM is a very capable performer, behaving somewhat similarly to the RF 24-240mm – insofar as it delivers excellent reach and seemingly excellent image quality. And, thanks to the high-ISO perf...

  • Focal length: 100-400mm, Maximum aperture: 100mm: f/5.6, 400mm f/8, Minimum aperture: 100mm: f/32, 400mm: f/45,
  • Maximum aperture f/8 at 400mm
  • Canon has been developing its RF lens range at a steady pace and it's good to see that it is considering the needs of enthusiast photographers as well as professionals. The RF 400mm F2.8L IS USM, which is aimed squarely at pro wildlife photographers, reta...
