Possibility of macro photography. Optical image stabilization. Silent autofocus.
Slow autofocus. Large dimensions and weight. The front lens sucks in dust.

A portrait lens and a macro lens in one bottle for full-frame mirrorless cameras of the Canon EOS R system. The model has a focal length of 85 mm and aperture of f / 2 in common with the portrait league of lenses, and for close-up shooting it provides a 1: 2 zoom at a focus distance of 35 cm Optically, the Canon RF 85mm f/2 Macro IS STM consists of 12 elements in 11 groups, including one ultra-low dispersion element to reduce chromatic aberration.

The IS column in the extended naming of the model indicates the presence of an optical image stabilization system on board, which works out up to 5 shutter speed or exposure steps when shooting handheld or in low light conditions. And behind the acronym STM is a stepper autofocus motor for smooth and silent focus on the target in the blink of an eye. The lens turned out to be relatively compact (78x91 mm), weighs exactly 500 g, and is compatible with filters with a diameter of 67 mm. The portrait role of the model is also reinforced by a 9-blade diaphragm design.

A stabilized portrait prime lens, and even with the possibility of macro photography, is a rarity. It was this model that was released in 2020 under the Canon RF mount.

2 in 1

The lens has a typical focal length of 85 mm for portraits and boasts close-up shooting at a scale of 1: 2 from a distance of 35 cm. Yes, a life-size macro model is too tough, but the very fact that macro photography is possible is a fixed lens exclusively for the future. Its maximum aperture is f/2.

Engine compartment filling

The Canon RF 85mm f/2 Macro IS STM features a 12-element-in-11-group design, including one ED glass lens to suppress chromatic aberrations. Also , under the hood, the model has a silent STM autofocus stepper drive and an optical stub. Together with Canon's first full-frame mirrorless cameras, the stabilizer compensates for up to 5 stops of shutter speed or exposure, with the latest generations of cameras — up to 8 stops in a row.

The size you need

The portrait intent of the lens comes from the 9-blade aperture design for soft bokeh when shooting at shallow depths of field. The model receives special praise for its relatively compact dimensions (78x91 mm) and weight of the order of half a kilogram. Together with the lens, you can use filters with a diameter of 67 mm. A 2-in-1 prime lens will fit any mirrorless camera with a Canon EOS R system full-frame sensor. And if its capabilities seem not enough, you can buy a top-end portrait Canon RF 85mm f / 1.2L USM for exorbitant prices.

From the manufacturer's press release:

"Canon announces the launch of the EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM, a new professional L-series lens with top performance and unrivaled speed. Featuring the widest aperture of any Canon EF lens to date, the EF 85mm f /1.2L II USM gives you full control over depth of field and ensures excellent performance in low light conditions.The new lens delivers faster autofocus and replaces the popular EF 85mm f/1.2L USM.Like other L-series models, the lens The EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM is built with precision optics and meets the highest standards.

The design of the L series lenses

Canon's flagship professional lenses, the L-series lenses meet the requirements of the most demanding photographers. The superior optical quality of the EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM and other L-series lenses delivers unparalleled shooting performance, focal length, speed and image quality unmatched by traditional optical technologies.

Portrait shooting

The combination of a near-circular aperture for optimal reproduction of background tones (by evenly blurring out-of-focus areas) and a low depth of field at the widest aperture makes this model perfect for portrait and studio shooting. The f/1.2 aperture allows photographers to achieve vivid portrait effects, such as sharpening the model's eyes and blurring the tips of the lashes.

Shooting in low light conditions

Canon's largest aperture value (f/1.2) of any modern lens makes it possible to shoot in low-light conditions without resorting to flash or long exposures. The improved autofocus speed achieved by the latest Ring Type Ultrasonic Motor (USM) is sure to make this lens a favorite among professional indoor sports photographers. Thanks to the use of ultrasonic motor (USM), which fixes the lens with high precision, it ensures the correct focus on the object on the first try. Electronic manual focus is also available at any time¹. The wide aperture of the lens, and the resulting full control of the depth of field, gives sports photographers the ability to simply use the blur effect, if necessary, to "remove" tribunes with spectators, billboards and other background objects that distract attention from objects in the foreground. plan.

aspherical lens

Wide aperture lenses using conventional lenses are often subject to spherical aberrations, which cause overall colour softening and "smearing" of the image. The EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM features a large, variable-curvature aspherical lens and moving element to ensure full image clarity and in-focus contrast across the entire focus range, as well as at wide apertures.

Super Spectra Coating

In addition to an improved lens shape to reduce stray light and the use of non-reflective materials in the lens barrel, the EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM features Canon's patented Super Spectra lens coating. This coating helps to reduce unwanted reflections and ghosting that often occur when using digital cameras due to light reflecting off the image sensor. By increasing light absorption, the Super Spectra coating reduces the reflective effect of the lenses, resulting in brighter, sharper images in natural colours.

E-TTL II flash system integration

The EF 85mm f/1.2 II USM transmits distance information to the subject with the E-TTL II flash system found on all modern EOS digital cameras; this achieves more accurate exposure metering when using EX-series Speedlites.

The EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM comes with a cylindrical lens hood and a lens case.

In keeping with Canon's "Kyosei" philosophy of living in harmony with the environment, Canon lenses are made only from lead-free glass."
