The RF 85mm F2 MACRO IS STM is suited to photographers looking for a compact and lightweight general purpose portrait lens for fashion, weddings, beauty and detail. The RF 85mm f2 Macro IS STM is perfect for portraiture and more, thanks to a close focus distance of 35cm for capturing macro details and it also has in-lens image stabilisation.

The 85mm focal length is a flattering angle for portraits. This lens will give you full-length, headshots and beauty details in one compact package. Your portraits will benefit from background bokeh due to the rounded 9-blade aperture that opens to f/2. The rounded aperture will make your subject pop against a smoother background.

Canon has an IS system with a great reputation. The RF 85mm f2 macro IS STM offers 5 stops of stabilisation due to the fast communication between EOS R series bodies and RF lenses. This high speed connection is one of the major benefits of the RF lens mount. With this lens you can select longer exposures without motion blur impacting your images.

Shoot clear close-ups with the close focusing distance of 35cm and macro magnification of 0.5x. Capture stunning details with edge to edge sharpness thanks to the lens aperture closing to f/29. This increases the depth of field which can reduce when shooting close subjects.
