Canon RF 14mm F1.4 L VCM Ultra Wide-Angle Lens for Full-Frame Mirrorless Cameras (RF Mount)
Meet the brightest 14mm ultra wide-angle lens Canon has ever made—designed for both photo and video creators. Featuring an ultra-fast f/1.4 aperture, this groundbreaking lens delivers exceptional low-light performance and stunning shallow depth of field, making it perfect for dramatic stills and cinematic visuals. Its lightweight, fixed aperture design ensures smooth handling and balance, while the advanced Voice Coil Motor (VCM) provides lightning-fast, whisper-quiet autofocus for seamless shooting. For filmmakers, a dedicated iris ring offers precise manual control over exposure, giving you the creative flexibility to capture every moment exactly as you envision. This is the lens that redefines wide-angle brilliance.
What More Could You Ask for in a Lens?
This lens has a lot going for it already being the brightest ultra wide-angle lens that Canon has made, but that is just the beginning. With impressive resolution, this lens the pinnacle of high image quality while also expanding the comprehensive f/1.4 L Series family of lenses that revolve around useful features like an iris ring that makes them exceptional for both still photography and video creation. The quality and construction is top notch with the first-ever application of a Fluorite lens element in a canon ultra wide-angle lens, an Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) element, and a Blue Spectrum Refractive Optics (BR) element to minimize chromatic aberration, and 3 GMo aspheric lenses for sharpness around the edges. Subwavelength Structure Coating (SSC) and Air Sphere Coating (ASC) reduce ghosting and flare. The lenses in this f/1.4 L Series family share the same basic dimensions and weight to make it easy to work with multiple prime lenses with the same muscle memory, and without having to rebalance a gimbal, or change your whole video rig setup.
Incredible Clarity, Even in the Corners
This ultra wide-angle lens delivers remarkable sharpness from edge to edge, with exceptional clarity even in the corners of every frame. This performance is made possible by the use of premium optical elements and a design that fully leverages the large diameter mount and short back focus distance. By optimally arranging a variety of advanced optical materials, the lens effectively suppresses chromatic and spherical aberrations, ensuring crisp, high-resolution imagery across the entire image field.
Focus on Focus
The RF14mm F1.4 L VCM Lens features a unique focusing system. There is a VCM (Voice Coil Motor) that powers the primary rear focus unit that is incredibly fast, accurate and quiet (great for video). One important note about the VCM is that it requires power to hold its position, so when the camera is off, or the lens is not attached to a camera, you may hear and feel slight movement. This is normal, and there is extra cushioning inside the lens to help prevent damage in this situation.
