The RF16-28mm F2.8 IS STM lens is our new lens that is perfect for both still and video content creators who may have a smaller budget but want high quality. This lens is now the smallest, lightest, RF zoom lens with extremely high image quality (equal that of an L-series lens). For still image creators this light and compact lens weighing in at just over one pound will be a “take anywhere” kind of lens. Offering a fast F2.8 aperture throughout the zoom range, photographers can work in low light situations or take creative control and blur the foreground and background with wide apertures not available on standard kit lenses. Pairing this lens with the RF28-70mm F2.8 IS STM released earlier this year gives you incredible zoom coverage while maintaining high image quality.

FEATURES
• Convenient wide-angle zoom with a fixed f/2.8 aperture through the entire zoom range.
• Light & compact everyday carry lens.
• Built-in optical image stabilization for less camera shake while hand-holding on-the-go.

use in harsh environments.
• Incredibly minimal focus breathing when recording video.
• Optical image stabilization is automatically enabled for cameras without IBIS for effective 5.5 stops of correction.*

stops.*

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Mia ★★★★★

Finally, an ultra-wide zoom that doesn't weigh a ton; the IS is a lifesaver for my run-and-gun video work. I can shoot handheld at 16mm without any shake, and the constant f/2.8 aperture really pulls in the light for low-light interiors.

Owen ★★★★★

I shoot a lot of indoor events, and the constant F2.8 aperture across the whole zoom range is a lifesaver in low light. The stabilization is also noticeably smoother than I expected for a lens this compact.

Andrew ★★★★★

I was skeptical about an F2.8 ultrawide zoom being this compact, but it balances beautifully on my R8. The IS is also noticeably effective for handheld video, letting me get smooth shots without a gimbal.
