Canon has just officially announced the new Canon RF 600mm F11 IS STM lens. It is a fixed-aperture super-telephoto lens for Canon’s full-frame mirrorless system. It has gapless dual-layer diffractive optics making it far more compact and lightweight than its EF equivalent. The stabilizer reduces shake by up to 5 stops. This new lens costs $699.99, first available for pre-order at Amazon/ B&H/ Adorama. It will start shipping from July 30, 2020 with Canon EOS R5 and Canon EOS R6.
