Description

Take clear photos in low light with the Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM. This camera lens has an f/1.8 aperture. That means the lens captures a lot of light and lets you create a soft background blur. The fixed 35mm focal length is versatile. You can use it to capture street scenes, landscapes, and portraits. The image stabilization reduces vibrations while you record. This way, you can shoot smooth videos and sharp photos in the dark. The Canon RF mount fits RF and RF-S mirrorless cameras.

A lightweight all-rounder

Bright through aperture of f/1.8
Capture details with macro function
Sharp images thanks to image stabilization
Not splash and dust resistant

Every photographer should have a lens with a 35mm focal length in their camera bag. These lenses are just wide enough to take street photos without being bothered by distortions at the edge of your photo. In addition, you can also make exciting portraits with it and you can also photograph beautiful landscapes when you are traveling. In short, a real all-rounder. And this Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM even more so. It can also take macro photos.

Diaphragm With this 35mm lens I am prepared for anything. If I take an evening walk during a city trip, then I don't have to worry about the light with an aperture of f/1.8. Aperture open and shoot. The result is nice and cinematic with such a small depth of field. Just the way I want it. Speaking of movies. Thanks to the silent STM autofocus motor, I am not bothered by disturbing noises while filming.

Macro Then remember that you can take very cool macro photos with this lens. Not super close to the subject of macros, but photos with a bit more context. This is due to the minimum focus distance of 17 centimeters. It ensures that I can get close to my subject, but there is still enough background visible. Personally, I like a bit more environment on my macro photos. Be careful when photographing drops on rainy days. This lens is not resistant to rain.

Image stabilization For a well-exposed macro photo I need a lot of light. I can open the aperture to let a good amount of light fall on the sensor, but then the depth of field becomes very small. I prefer to shoot at f/5.6 without having to set the ISO very high. And with this lens you can. Thanks to the built-in image stabilization, I can even shoot by hand with a slow shutter speed of 1/10 sec without blurry results.

My family party lens

bright
not big
not heavy
obviously no zoom

I have a Canon RP with the Kit zoom lens 24-105 and was therefore looking for something brighter for family parties that often take place in slightly poorer situations. Flash is always possible, of course, but it is also an art to master. With this lens I can actually take indoor photos very quickly without them becoming too dark. 35 mm is also quite okay for taking a portrait photo and ideal for photographing a group of family members. Quality is very good, feels decent and sturdy, is not noisy and the photos are of good quality (at least when I don't do stupid things...)
