CANON RF LENSES
The RF mount was first introduced in 2018, with the launch of Canon’s first full frame mirrorless system, the EOS R. Utilising a 12-pin communication system between camera and lens and featuring a very different design principle to their EF counterparts, RF lenses only work with R-series cameras.
In the space of just two years, 17 RF lenses were launched. Whilst initially Canon’s focus was on fast lenses with optimal quality (its L-series), there are now several more affordable lenses geared towards the enthusiast photographer.
