Canon also introduces four new RF lenses, three RF Mount adapters and compact and lightweight Speedlite EL-100.
Canon today unveils the new Canon EOS R full frame mirrorless camera with its new RF-mount system. The new full frame camera system from Canon gives four native RF lenses that covers common focal lengths from 24mm to 105mm.
These four Canon RF lenses are the RF 24-105mm f/4L USM, RF 28-70mm f/2L USM, RF 35mm f/1.8 M IS, RF 50mm f/1.2L USM. All four lenses have customizable control rings.
In addition to the four new lenses, Canon has also introduced three EF to RF adapters providing EF & EF-S Lenses with Full Compatibility and Enhanced Functionality with the New EOS R Camera . Canon promises that the EF-RF adapters will allow the millions of existing EF lenses in circulation to be used “without compromise” on the new EOS R and future RF-mount cameras.
