Canon RF 50mm F1.4L VCM 

The natural hybrid

With its natural perspective, the RF 50MM F1.4L VCM is ideal for portraits, reportage and video with a cinematic look. A Nano USM and Voice Coil Motor deliver exceptional speed and near-silent operation while an f/1.4 aperture gives great depth-of-field control and low light prowess. With hybrid features such as an Iris Ring, minimal focus breathing and smooth focusing alongside ASC and Super Spectra coating for stunning image quality, it’s one creative solution for photo and video.

The RF 50MM F1.4L VCM sits in the L-series Pro Lenses range as part of Canon’s new hybrid lens lineup.

 

Features and benefits

Exceptional stills and video performance with a natural look

A 50mm focal length offers a natural full frame perspective for photographers. Filmmakers will appreciate minimal focus breathing and a separate Iris Ring1 that delivers smooth manual control. An 11-blade aperture delivers beautiful circular highlights for a cinematic look.

A brilliant creative performance, even in low light

Keep on shooting when light levels drop thanks to an f/1.4 aperture for a bright image plus versatile depth-of-field control for optimal highlights. The RF 50MM F1.4L VCM delivers exceptional detail, while its natural perspective makes it ideal for portraits and cinematic video.

Speed and precision with incredible sharpness

Enjoy superb image quality thanks to two aspheric elements and a UD lens with Super Spectra and ASC coatings for incredible clarity. A fast Nano USM combined with even faster Voice Coil Motor (VCM2) technology delivers rapid yet smooth, precise focusing for both stills and video.

Superb reliability with intuitive handling

Work tough in challenging conditions thanks to an L-series design3 housing high-quality glass elements. A fluorine coating prevents dirt sticking to the front element while a dedicated Lens Control Ring and customisable Lens Function Button bring you personalised control.

A carefully considered, lightweight design

Be more agile when you’re shooting. The RF 50MM F1.4L VCM is approximately 40 percent lighter than the RF 50mm F1.2L USM; and being part of the hybrid prime range, it’s ideal when swapping lenses on your video rig.

 

New Technology Explained

Iris Ring

Use the Iris Ring when shooting video for manual aperture control and enjoy a smoother, silent operation between stops.

 

VCM (Voice Coil Motor)

Because of the lens’ larger internal elements a VCM can move them faster, allowing spontaneous moments to be captured and smooth focus transitions to be achieved when filming.

Lens Function Button (AF Stop Button)

The customisable Lens Function Button works by default as an AF stop button which temporarily pauses AF during Servo AF.
