A hybrid lens designed for stills and video, the natural wide-angle of view and a fast f/1.4 aperture make this lens an inspired choice for creative storytelling.
For compelling stills and cinematic video, choose the RF 35mm F1.4L VCM to bring your worlds together. Thanks to pioneering Canon technology and intuitive features such as dedicated iris control for video and Nano USM and VCM focusing for rapid and silent AF, this wide-angle hybrid prime puts you in control of creative storytelling.
Seamless multimedia artistry in one design
The 35mm focal length offers a sweet spot in perspective. A separate Iris Ring brings smooth manual iris control when filming,1 while an 11-blade aperture gives outstanding depth-of-field control, with minimal focus breathing for incredible image quality.
A brilliant creative performance, even in low light.
Keep shooting when light levels drop thanks to an f/1.4 aperture for a bright image. The prime lens design puts the focus on your subject, with the option for front and rear filters for extra creative control.
Crystal-clear imaging with rapid precision
Enjoy superb image quality thanks to aspheric and UD lens elements with Super Spectra and ASC coatings. A fast Nano USM combined with even faster Voice Coil Motor (VCM2) technology delivers fast and precise focusing.
Superb reliability with intuitive handling
Work tough in challenging conditions thanks to an L-series design housing high-quality glass elements. A fluorine coating prevents dirt sticking to the front element while a dedicated Lens Control Ring and customisable Lens Function Button bring you personalised control.
Thoughtful, lightweight design
Be more agile when you’re shooting thanks to better balance and lightweight handling. The RF 35mm F1.4L VCM is lighter than its EF predecessor and being a hybrid, it’s well-suited for fitting into smaller video rigs.
