Best Canon RF Lenses

If you are looking for the best Canon RF lenses; here is a detailed guide for you. Our full list of top recommended RF-mount lenses for Canon EOS R5, R6, R, Ra and RP mirrorless cameras.

The RF lens mount was developed by Canon and launched in 2018 to replace the EF mount. The Canon RF mount has the same 54mm diameter, but boasts a flange focal distance (the space between the lens and the sensor) of 20mm (24mm shorter than that of the EF/EF-S mount, thanks to the lack of mirror) and 12 electrical contacts (4 more than EF/EF-S, providing faster communication).

Canon RF lenses are not compatible with EF, EF-S or EF-M mount camera bodies. This means they are not backwards compatible with DSLR lenses that use the older EF mount. While Canon initially continued to develop several more EF mount DSLRs after the launch of the RF mount, they stated publicly at the beginning of 2020 that there would be no more EF lenses. Remember that the non-L lenses are not weather sealed.

Up to now, Canon has released a total of 22 RF mount lenses for its full-frame mirrorless cameras. The company is planning to announce more RF mount optics in near future. So, choosing the right lens will get harder since the the camera maker starts to add more lenses to its RF line-up. Here we list the top recommended Canon RF-mount lenses on the market based on good price, usefulness and high image quality, including leading prime and zoom options from wide-angle to telephoto for portraits, wedding, landscapes, street, walkaround, travel, event, macro, videos, sports and wildlife and more.
