Canon has announced the new Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM Z lens, which follows in the high-tech footsteps of the Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8L IS USM Z, boosting Canon’s hybrid lens line, alongside the new Canon RF 24mm f/1.4L VCM and Canon RF 50mm f/1.4L VCM hybrid prime lenses also revealed today.

These RF hybrid lenses, with their dedicated aperture ring, sit between standard Canon RF lenses, cinema and broadcast lenses – borrowing the best bits from each category to create crossover lenses that satisfy every kind of shooter.
