Items Include: Canon RF 16-28mm f/2.8 IS STM Lens (Canon RF) + Canon EOS 200ES Shoulder Bag + 64GB Memory Card The Canon RF 16-28mm f/2.8 IS STM is a compact, lightweight ultra-wide zoom lens with a constant f/2.8 aperture, making it ideal for landscapes, interiors, astrophotography, and travel. Its portability and bright aperture ensure consistent performance in low light with enhanced subject isolation and pleasing background blur. Built with four Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) and two aspherical elements, this lens delivers excellent clarity, reduced chromatic aberrations, and minimized distortion across the zoom range. A Super Spectra Coating further enhances color fidelity while suppressing flare and ghosting in high-contrast lighting conditions. Featuring up to 5.5 stops of built-in optical image stabilization—or up to 8 stops when paired with a compatible IBIS-equipped Canon body—the RF 16-28mm provides sharper handheld imagery. Video shooters also benefit from minimal focus breathing and smooth operation with the STM autofocus motor. Engineered with L-series equivalent quality, the lens includes weather-resistant sealing for outdoor durability, a rounded nine-blade diaphragm for beautiful bokeh, and practical features like a 67mm filter thread, a 7.9" minimum focusing distance, and a lightweight design weighing just 1 lb. The Canon RF 16-28mm f/2.8 IS STM is an ultra-wide zoom lens designed for photographers and videographers who value portability without sacrificing performance. Distinguished as the smallest and lightest RF zoom lens to date, it combines a bright constant f/2.8 maximum aperture with a sleek build, making it a versatile choice for capturing expansive landscapes, architectural interiors, astrophotography, or handheld video content. Its optical construction incorporates four Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) elements and two aspherical elements arranged within a 16-element, 13-group design, ensuring sharpness, contrast, and color fidelity while minimizing chromatic aberrations and distortion. To further improve image quality, Canon applies a Super Spectra Coating (SSC) that reduces flare and ghosting, helping deliver clean, vibrant results even in backlit conditions. Built-in optical image stabilization compensates for up to 5.5 stops of camera shake and extends to an impressive 8 stops when paired with Canon’s in-body IS systems, ensuring crisp handheld images and stable video. Autofocus is powered by a leadscrew-type STM motor, offering fast, quiet, and precise subject tracking with minimal focus breathing, making it suitable for both stills and video applications. The lens’s rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to smooth bokeh, while a minimum focusing distance of 7.9" at 28mm allows for creative close-up compositions. Durable construction with weather-resistant sealing gives it performance akin to Canon’s L-series lenses, providing peace of mind during outdoor shoots. With its lightweight 1 lb design and 67mm filter compatibility, the RF 16-28mm f/2.8 IS STM is a powerful, travel-friendly lens that blends professional-grade performance with everyday convenience.
