Canon's RF 28mm f/2.8 STM lens is impressively portable and will not break the bank, making it a nice option for anyone who wants a lightweight option they can take anywhere without worrying about a stray bump here or there. This excellent video review takes a look at if such a small and affordable lens can provide the sort of performance and image quality moderns users demand.
Coming to you from Dustin Abbott, this great video review takes a look at the Canon RF 28mm f/2.8 STM lens. Measuring less than an inch (2.5 cm) long and only tipping the scales at 4.2 oz (120 g), the 28mm f/2.8 is barely noticeable when it is attached to your camera. And despite that small size and affordable price ($299), it still comes with a nice range of features, including:
- 8 elements in 6 groups
- Minimum focusing distance of 9.1 inches
- Maximum magnification of 0.17x
- Customizable control ring
- Gear-type STM motor for smooth autofocus in video
- 7-blade circular aperture for smoother bokeh
While the f/2.8 might put off some users, it seems like the lens certainly makes up for it with impressive image quality, even on demanding high-resolution sensors, making it a nice option for a variety of applications. Check out the video above for Abbott's full thoughts.
