by | Feb 5, 2026 | News | 0 comments

Canon has announced the launch of the RF7-14mm F2.8-3.5 L Fisheye STM zoom lens and the RF14mm F1.4 L VCM prime lens expanding their diverse offering of RF-mount lenses. The new zoom is said to be the world’s widest angle zoom lens with a 190° field of view, ideal for dynamic fisheye imagery. This new zoom lens builds on the capabilities of the EF 8-15mm by adding a wider angle zoom range and a brighter aperture. Meanwhile, the RF14mm F1.4 L VCM prime lens delivers Canon’s brightest ultra-wide angle interchangeable lens ever produced.

Key features of the Canon RF7-14mm F2.8-3.5 L Fisheye STM zoom lens include:

• Canon’s widest single lens with a maximum 190° field of view, achieving both circular 190° fisheye at 7mm (wide), and diagonal 180° fisheye at 14mm (telephoto), with its 7-14mm zoom range.
• Variable maximum aperture of f/2.8 at 7mm (wide) and f/3.5 at 14mm (telephoto), brighter than its EF predecessor for enhanced low-light performance and background separation.
• Built-in support of Canon EF-to-EOS R mount adapter drop-in filters (Clear, CPL, Variable ND) plus Lens Lock/Limit, Lens Function button and Control Ring.
• High image quality with 5 UD lens elements, 2 replica aspheric lenses, and Air Sphere Coating (ASC) applied in 3 locations to reduce ghosting.
• Leadscrew-type STM focus drive with position sensors for smooth, video-capable operation and reduced focus breathing (0.4% at wide, 1.5% at tele).
• Fisheye images shot with the RF7-14mm F2.8-3.5 L STM zoom lens can be converted using Canon EOS VR Utility for viewing on a PC or head-mounted display. Conversion of 2D VR images is possible with cameras such as: EOS R5C, EOS R5 Mark II, EOS R5, EOS R6 Mark II.

Key features of the Canon RF14mm F1.4 L VCM prime lens include:

• Canon’s brightest ultra-wide-angle (14mm) interchangeable lens for hybrid Photo / Video use.
• Ultra-wide 14mm prime with f/1.4 aperture for better low-light performance and background separation, brighter aperture than the EF 14mm f/2.8.
• Dual VCM (Voice Coil Motor) focusing for fast, precise autofocus in photo and video, with reduced focus breathing (3.0%, or 2.3% up to f/20).
• Compact and light weight at 4.4” (L) x 3.0” (D) and just 1.27lbs, providing a similar size, weight and design complimenting the comprehensive F1.4 L-series lens series (RF20mm/24mm/35mm/50mm/85mm F1.4 L VCM lenses).
• Precision optics for high image quality and sharp rendering of point light sources with Canon’s first Fluorite element in an ultra-wide-angle lens, and featuring BR Optics, 1 UD lens, and 3 GMo aspheric lenses, plus Sub-wavelength coating in 1 location and Air Sphere coating in 2 for minimized ghosting.
• 11-blade aperture for smooth, circular bokeh.
• Iris ring compatible with EOS R1, EOS R5 Mark II, and EOS R6 Mark III cameras; plus Lens Function button and Control Ring.

The Canon RF7-14mm F2.8-3.5 L Fisheye STM zoom lens and RF14mm F1.4 L VCM prime lens are expected to be available by the end of February 2026, for estimated retail prices of US $1,899.00 for the zoom and US $2,599.00 for the prime.
