With its mirrorless RF system beginning to mature, Canon spent 2022 adding some more distinct optics to the lineup, as well as beginning to lay the foundation for an APS-C-specific series of lenses. The brand has reached a unique place with its mirrorless portfolio this year, and has hit the thirty-lens milestone, where the lineup feels well-rounded enough for most professional and hobbyist demands, although there are still some missing pieces for more specialized applications.
RF 800mm f/5.6 L IS USM and RF 1200mm f/8 L IS USM
At the beginning of 2022, Canon addressed professional sports and wildlife photographers’ needs with a pair of super telephoto primes: the RF 800mm f/5.6 L IS USM and RF 1200mm f/8 L IS USM lenses. Unquestionably long and sporting some of the most advanced optics around, these two lenses really show off what Canon is capable of when there are few to no restrictions set on price and design. Considering they’re on the extreme end of the focal-length range, these aren’t going to be the most popular lenses in the Canon RF stable, but they are aspirational options that give Canon a unique edge for photographing significant sporting events or other important occasions from great distances, as well as enabling wildlife photography in more dynamic ways.
