Canon RF 24mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM Lens

Canon RF 24mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM Lens
The Canon RF 24mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM is a uniquely versatile wide-angle prime lens engineered for full-frame Canon RF-mount mirrorless cameras. By pairing an expansive ultra-wide field of view with a specialized close-focusing macro architecture, this lens lets you capture intimate close-up detail while maintaining a sweeping sense of background space. It is an exceptional creative tool for landscape photographers, nature enthusiasts, street documentarians, and vloggers who want to blend close-up subjects with environmental context.

Wide-Angle Perspective & True Half Life-Size Macro
Dynamic Environmental Context: Unlike traditional telephoto macro lenses that tightly compress backgrounds, the 24mm wide-angle perspective retains a broad sense of space and a naturally deep depth of field, keeping backgrounds beautifully integrated.

1:2 Half Life-Size Magnification: Its specialized macro designation allows you to get incredibly close to your subject, delivering a 1:2 maximum magnification ratio and a close 5.5-inch minimum focusing distance to capture intricate fine textures.

Bright f/1.8 Maximum Aperture: The fast f/1.8 aperture offers ample light-gathering capabilities for low-light environments, while providing fine-tuned control over your focal plane to isolate subjects with a shallow depth of field.

Premium UD & Aspherical Element Array: The advanced optical layout utilizes one Ultra-Low Dispersion (UD) element and one aspherical element to systematically control chromatic and spherical aberrations, ensuring crisp rendering and accurate color fidelity.

Super Spectra Coating: Individual lens elements feature a multi-layered Super Spectra treatment to suppress internal reflections, lens flare, and ghosting, maintaining rich image contrast in bright or backlit conditions.

9-Blade Rounded Diaphragm: Incorporates nine rounded aperture blades to produce a smooth, creamy, and organic out-of-focus background blur (bokeh).

Advanced Stabilization & Smooth STM Focus
Up to 6.5 Stops of Coordinated IS: Features an integrated Optical Image Stabilizer that provides up to 5 stops of camera shake correction on its own. When paired with select Canon EOS R-series bodies featuring In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS), the coordinated system delivers up to 6.5 stops of shake correction, making smooth handheld shooting effortless at slow shutter speeds.

Quiet STM Stepping Motor: Driven by a rapid and near-silent STM stepping focus motor. This autofocus system provides the smooth, quiet, and precise tracking necessary to benefit both crisp still photography and fluid video applications.

Programmable Lens Control Ring: A built-in, configurable control ring on the lens barrel allows you to intuitively dial in exposure settings—including manual aperture adjustments, ISO values, or exposure compensation—directly from the lens itself.
