RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM Overview
RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM wide-angle to standard zoom lens is a great entry point for full frame EOS R cameras. Great for still photography and videography, the RF24-50mm can provide intensity in your still images at 24mm, and excel with everyday shooting at 50mm. Rely on that wide field of view for vlogging, while still being able to zoom in when the need arises. The lightweight and compact nature of this lens pairs perfectly with the newer compact full-frame R-Series cameras. The RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM also comes with built-in Optical Image Stabilization to further enhance your low-light shooting abilities by providing up to 4.5 stops* of shake correction, and up to 7.0 stops with coordinated IS. The RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM also supports Movie Digital IS when connected to a camera with this feature. You will enjoy the versatility of this lens for all of your upcoming creative projects!

RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM
A well-balanced standard zoom lens for lightweight
The RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM makes for a lightweight and comfortable, all-day lens whether you are vlogging or shooting stills. It's ideal for capturing a variety of subjects without having to constantly change lenses.
Excellent image quality
Taking advantage of the Canon RF lens mount, the RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM lens offers great optical quality, edge-to-edge. Its optical design includes two aspheric elements, and Canon Super Spectra Coating (SSC) to minimize ghosting and flare.
Optical image stabilization — up to 4.5 stops* of shake correction
For consistently sharp results, the RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM features built-in optical Image Stabilization, providing enhanced shake reduction for up to 4.5 stops* of shake correction. When paired with an EOS R-series camera that has In Body Image Stabilization (IBIS), the Coordinated IS allows for up to 7 stops of correction. This means more reliable handheld performance and clearer detail in low-light situations, without having to increase the ISO or decrease the shutter speed. Because of its enhanced stabilization, the RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM can also help minimize the need for a tripod.
Lead Screw-type STM
Canon's stepping motor (STM) technology is especially effective at producing smooth, quiet autofocus during video recording, even in low light. This lens is a perfect choice for multi-media content creation with quiet autofocus. And, STM focus drive provides responsive, quick - and exceptionally quiet - AF during still-image shooting, as well.
Control Ring for Direct Setting Changes
The RF24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM lens incorporates a Focus/Control ring on the lens barrel that can directly adjust numerous settings including shutter speed, aperture, exposure compensation and more. Located towards the front of the lens and effectively adding a third dial to the EOS R camera's main dial and quick control dial.
Impressively compact and light at only 0.5 lbs/210g.
The compact size and light weight of the lens makes it an ideal companion on long days and adventures. It is also handy for a day out shooting and when you want to be creative without having to carry multiple lenses.
