RF15-35mm F2.8 L IS USM (Delivery will take 1 month)
Professional f/2.8L wide-angle zoom lens for EOS R system featuring 15mm extreme wide angle and 5-stop Image Stabilizer. The use of 3 aspherical lenses and 2 UD lenses with SWC and ASC coating offers exceptional high quality at f/2.8.
Compatible cameras: EOS R series mirrorless cameras
Ultra-Wide Zoom with 15mm
The advantages of large-diameter and short back focus distance provided by the RF mount offers greater freedom in wide angle lens design, the RF15-35mm F2.8 L IS USM thus achieves a built-in optical image stabilizer and an extension of wide-angle end 15mm with a 110° angle of view, allowing professionals to capture subjects in wider and more dramatic perspectives, while maintaining the size of the renowned EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III USM.


EOS R • ISO 400 • f/11 • 0.4s• 15mm
15mm ultra-wide angle focal length allows capturing of more breath-taking scenes.
Versatile Focal Length
The 15mm ultra-wide angle to 35mm wide angle zoom range is an ideal choice for professionals specialize in landscape, architecture, snapshots as well as photojournalism.
EOS R • ISO 400 • f/5.6 • 1/30s • 24mm
EOS R • ISO 400 • f/2.8 • 1/200s • 36mm
EOS R • ISO 100 • f/8 • 1/500s • 70mm
F2.8 Large Aperture
Being one of the RF F2.8 Trinity Lenses, RF15-35mm F2.8 L IS USM provides fast f/2.8 aperture throughout the zoom range. The shallow depth of field with ultra-wide angle lens’ unique perspective brings more visual dynamic to images. Moreover, its 9-blade circular aperture delivers beautiful and soft background blur. The fast f/2.8 aperture also allows photographers to use lower ISO or faster shutter for their shooting in dark situations.
EOS R • ISO 400 • f/2.8 • 1/125s • 25mm
Outstanding Image Quality from Edge to Edge
The new 16 elements in 12 groups optical design of RF15-35mm F2.8 L IS USM makes use of the advanteg of large-diameter and short back focus distance provided by the RF mount, featuring 3 Glass-Molded (GMo) aspherical lens and 2 UD lens elements to achieve edge-to-edge high resolution and low distortion images throughout the entire zoom range even when the aperture is wide open.
EOS R • ISO 800 • f/2.8 • 1/5s • 15mm


Glass-Molded (GMo) Aspherical Lens
3 GMo aspherical lenses correct the spherical aberration of large aperture lens and distortion commonly found in wide-angle lens.


UD Lens
2 UD lenses are used to correct the chromatic aberration of magnification at wide angle.


SWC (Subwavelength Structure Coating)
SWC is featured to reduce flaring and ghosting due to light entering the lens with a large angle of incidence or from lens element with a large curvature, which are commonly found in wide-angle lenses.


ASC (Air Sphere Coating)
ASC is also added to suppress the occurrence of flaring and ghosting from incident lights that enters almost vertically or in backlit scenes.
Image Stabilization up to 7 stops1
Being the first Canon image stabilized full frame f/2.8 ultra-wide angle zoom lens, RF15-35mm F2.8 L IS USM’s built-in Optical Image Stabilizer provides up to 5 stops image stabilization2 that facilitates handheld shooting. When paired with EOS R series cameras equipped with In-Body Image Stabilization, up to 8 stops1 image stabilization can be achieved, which allows to shoot with slow shutter in dark situations.
IS: OFF
IS: ON
EOS R • ISO 100 • f/2.8 • 1s • 35mm
High Speed Nano USM
RF15-35mm F2.8 L IS USM is equipped with Nano USM to deliver high speed and precise AF for photography, as well as continuous smooth and nearly silent Movie Servo AF for movie recording. Full-time manual focus is also supported.


0.28m Minimum focus distance
RF15-35mm F2.8 L IS USM features 0.28m minimum focus distance throughout the zoom range with a maximum magnification of 0.21x (at 35mm), which allows getting closer to the subjects and be creative with ultra-wide angle lens' exaggerated perspective distortion.
EOS R • ISO 400 • f/2.8 • 1/100s • 35mm
Unparalleled Reliability and Operability


Compatible with 82mm Filter
Screw-in 82mm filters commonly used for landscape photography can be mounted easily.


Control Ring
Incorporates the RF lens control ring to adjust assigned settings such as ISO speed, shutter speed or aperture value directly from the lens.
The clicking sensation and sound of the control ring can be removed for silent control during photo shooting or video recording. This service is available at Canon Care Center (chargeable service).


Dust and water-resistance3
High level of durability and shock resistance with dust-and-water-resistant design3 to meet professional requirement.


Fluorine coating
Fluorine coating on foremost and rearmost lens surfaces help prevent dust, oil and water from sticking to the lens, makes cleaning much easier.
1 CIPA Standard, Focal Length: 35mm, EOS R5 is used. In Yaw/Pitch directions.
2 CIPA Standard, Focal Length: 35mm, EOS R is used. In Yaw/Pitch directions.
3 With Dust-and-water-resistant EOS R series camera; however, it is not recommended for use under rain.
