The Canon RF 50mm 1.8 STM RF Lens is a compact RF prime lens with a fast f/1.8 aperture capable of high quality images. The lens is small, light and quiet thanks to a redesign of optics for its RF mount and STM motor and ideal for exploring your creativity.
Wide aperture creativity
Create artistic and impactful images at lower ISO thanks to a wide f/1.8 aperture that achieves sharp focus on a subject yet delivers a beautiful blurred background.
Sharp, quiet focusing
The STM (Stepping Motor) technology focuses very smoothly and in near-silence, ideal for stills and video. Super Spectra Coating on the lens elements ensure quality.
Compact and lightweight
At 160g and 40.5mm, it is a highly compact and lightweight partner for your day-to-day shooting with EOS R-series cameras, with no adapter required.
Considered design
Very discreet with a combined focusing and control ring for intuitive control, the lens has a 7-blade circular aperture for superb bokeh and focuses to 0.3m.
Creativity at lower cost
The Canon RF 50mm 1.8 offers an affordable way to explore greater creativity, and is a great choice for ambient light portraits with a natural, flattering perspective.
