A compact and lightweight telephoto zoom expands the range of shooting... Rich scenes discovered in the four prefectures of the Chugoku region

Tour the Chugoku region with the RF100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM

The RF100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM is a new addition to the RF lens series. It is a lens that allows you to obtain a super-telephoto range without sacrificing mobility.

I set out on a photography trip with this lens in combination with my beloved EOS R5, and shot telephoto shots of late summer.

Starting from my hometown Tottori, the Chugoku region such as Okayama, Shimane, and Yamaguchi. This is a perfect area for capturing distant subjects up close, which is one of the characteristics of a telephoto lens, and for capturing distant subjects with great impact through the compression effect. .

At this location, which is usually the main field of photography, I chased not only the natural scenery, but also the railway scenery, which I often shoot because of my work.

By taking advantage of its high mobility and super-telephoto performance, you can cut out the world by focusing on the characteristics of the field and the form of the subject. There were unknown discoveries and new worlds of photographic expression that could only be found with this lens.

The total length is about 16.4cm and the weight is 635g. The telephoto zoom lens' greatest feature is its compact size that can be stored in a small bag.

By correcting chromatic aberration over the entire zoom range, it achieves delicate and clear descriptive performance without blurring.

In addition, the adoption of Canon's unique rear focus + nano USM (a compact ultrasonic motor that achieves high-speed AF) provides excellent AF response, realizing high-speed and smooth focusing over a wide area even when shooting moving subjects. ing.

In addition, the lens is equipped with IS, and when combined with the EOS R5/R6 equipped with IS in the body, up to 6 steps of image stabilization can be obtained, so you can enjoy hand-held shooting with confidence even at the telephoto end of 400mm. It is also attractive.
