Canon RF 200-800mm f/6.3-9 IS USM Review

The Canon RF 200-800mm f/6.3-9 IS USM is an impressive lens with a huge zoom range. It is a little heavy and not as sharp as expected, but overall it is a good lens, especially if you consider the focal lengths it offers.

Despite its weight and not being as sharp as I hoped, the Canon RF 200-800mm f/6.3-9 IS USM is still an impressive lens with a huge zoom range. The autofocus is silent, accurate, and very fast, which is great when shooting at 800mm, and the lens provides good image quality when stopped down.

The lens is a little heavier than I was hoping it to be, and perhaps not quite as sharp as its optical performance is reasonably good. The dark aperture, while not disastrous, does make for a more difficult shooting experience.

The Canon RF 200-800mm f/6.3-9 IS USM is an impressive lens with a huge zoom range. Despite being a bit heavy and not as sharp as expected, its overall performance is quite good. The lens is a full-frame only for Canon's eosr system mless and it's priced at about £2,300 in the UK. The lens is made mostly of metal to keep the weight down and it is reasonably tough. It comes with a strong adjustable tripod mount and one of Canon's customizable rings, which turn smoothly. The lens has good image quality, especially when stopped down, and performs well when shooting at 800mm on a challenging camera like the apsc. Although the lens has some shortcomings like weight and sharpness, it is still recommended, especially if a tripod is used to assist with the weight.

Testing out telephoto zoom lenses like the Canon RF 200-800mm f/6.3-9 IS USM is a huge amount of work, but overall, the lens is very impressive and recommended, especially if you bear in mind it's a little big and heavy, and a tripod will greatly help when shooting with it.
