In this video, Jon Devo talks us through his first impressions of Canon’s RF 24mm f1.4 L VCM Z Lens and RF 50mm f1.4 L VCM Z lenses, and how they compared to other Canon lenses. These join the ever-growing Canon RF L-series lens lineup, filling in the gaps from the original DSLR L-series. Checking out these lenses with Chef Marco in London, Jon looks at each lens’s optical sharpness, premium image quality and precision autofocusing, providing examples of stills and video along the way.
These lenses are packed with Canon’s latest tech including near-silent Nano USM & VCM AF motors and wide, bright and fast maximum f1.4 apertures that are perfect for low-light shooting and creating stunningly shallow depth of field.
