Product details
The RF 100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM is aimed at photography enthusiasts who need more focal length but don't want the cost, extra weight and size of a more specialised lens. As an entry-level model in the RF zoom lens range, it is positioned below the RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM. The lightest super telephoto zoom in its class.
