Canon RF28-70mm f/2.8 IS STM: upgrade your mirrorless camera setup for active photography

With the product slogan Lightweight Fast Zoom, the lens is designed for Canon’s EOS R mirrorless camera system which strikes a balance between price and features.

Light package

Meant to pair with a mirrorless setup, the lens weighs in at just under 500g – 45% lighter than the pro-grade RF24-70mm f/2.8L IS USM, making it perfect for travel or everyday use.

Low light performance – with a plus

Attributed to the constant f/2.8 aperture zoom lens, the lens yields amazing low-light performance and dreamy bokeh (ideal for social media) – whether you’re shooting wide at 28mm or zoomed in at 70mm

Solid built-in image stabilisation

Coming with built-in image stabilization, this lens produces sharp handheld photos even in tricky lighting conditions. Take the chance to compliment better cameras with IBIS (like the EOS R6 Mark II)

For video enthusiasts, it supports Movie Digital IS – resulting in smooth footage without needing a tripod or gimbal.

Durable for its nature

To compliment the high portability, this lens has weather sealing and shock resistance – a fantastic addition despite not being part of their higher-end L series. Users can expect excellent image quality thanks to Canon’s top-tier optical tech.

Availability and Pricing

The Canon RF28-70mm f/2.8 IS STM is priced at S$1,699.00. It is currently available through online and offline retailers – such as Best Denki and Harvey Norman.
