RF50mm f/1.4L VCM
Cinematic Standard Focal
The RF50mm f/1.4L VCM lens combines ultra-fast, silent autofocus powered by both Voice Coil Motor (VCM) and Nano USM technology, making it a perfect fit for filmmaking. Its 50mm focal length naturally mirrors the human eye, delivering true-to-life perspectives.
The wide f/1.4 aperture, along with 11 circular blades, ensure excellent low-light performance and stunning cinematic bokeh, while the physical iris control lets you fine-tune your creative expression effortlessly.
- Large f/1.4 Aperture & Iris Control
- Voice Coil Motor (VCM) & Nano USM
- Lightweight & Dust- and Drip-Resistance
With its innovative design and optical configuration made possible by the RF mount, the RF50mm f/1.4L VCM produces exceptional image quality all the way till to the edges of the image.

VCM & Nano USM
Experience lightning-fast and pinpoint-accurate autofocus with the revolutionary RF50mm f/1.4L VCM. Harnessing the power of a Voice Coil Motor (VCM), this cutting-edge actuator seamlessly transforms electrical energy into kinetic force through a magnetic field.
While the VCM propels the heavier focusing lens group, the Nano USM drives the floating lens. These two work in perfect harmony to deliver swift and precise autofocus that operates very smoothly and quietly, ideal for recording videos.
Aspherical Lenses
In order to achieve superior image quality, the RF50mm f/1.4L VCM uses one glass-molded (GMo) aspherical lens and one replica aspheric lens to suppress spherical aberration and image distortion.
UD Lens
The RF50mm f/1.4L VCM uses one single Ultra-Low Dispersion (UD) lens element with low refraction and low dispersion, reducing axial and chromatic aberrations to deliver higher image quality.
Air Sphere Coating
Air Sphere Coating (ASC) with anti-reflection technology suppresses ghosting and reduces flare for clear and high contrast images even when shooting backlit subjects.
Mesmerising Bokeh
The large f/1.4 aperture, paired with its 11-blade circular design, creates beautifully smooth bokeh and a cinematic out-of-focus effect. It also allows for faster shutter speeds or lower ISO settings, making it perfect for capturing crisp images even in low-light conditions.
Superior Quality Up-Close
Experience stunning, edge-to-edge clarity, even in close-up shots, with up to 0.15x magnification and a minimum focusing distance of just 0.4m.
Capture beauty in every detail, no matter how close you get.
Focus Breathing Correction
When recording videos, a typical phenomenon that occurs is a 'pulsing effect' in the footage whereby the camera's angle of view changes slightly during focus racking. The RF50mm f/1.4L VCM's floating focus control suppresses breathing optically in all focus positions, resulting in outstanding video quality with any EOS R camera body.
With a compact size of 99.3mm in length and 580g in weight, the RF50mm f/1.4L VCM is smaller and almost 40% lighter than the RF50mm f/1.2L USM.
Iris Ring
The RF50mm f/1.4L VCM’s iris ring offers the intuitive control that filmmakers love.
It allows precise, physical aperture adjustments just like a true cinema lens for you to craft the perfect lighting for your creative vision.
Lens Function Button
The customisable Lens Function button puts control at your fingertips, providing quick access to essential functions such as autofocus, exposure, connectivity, and more.
This feature allows you to effortlessly adapt to changing scenes to capture the perfect shot.
Customisable Focus Ring
The lens has a dedicated focusing ring for manual focus which you can also customise for various functions similar to the control ring when paired with compatible cameras.
*dedicated control ring function is disabled if focus ring is used as control ring
Control Ring
Canon's distinctive knurled control ring allows you to control AF area, shutter speed, aperture, exposure compensation, ISO, white balance, colour temperature and even Picture Style.
Dust & Drip Resistance
The lens has a dust- and drip-resistant construction that keeps dust and water droplets out.
Fluorine Coating
A smudge-resistant fluorine coating is applied on the front lens, preventing moisture and oil from sticking.

*This product emits low level magnetic flux. If you use an implantable cardiac pacemaker or other medical device and feel abnormalities, please keep away from this product and consult your doctor.
*When the lens is not attached to the camera or the power switch of the camera is in the off status when the lens is attached, shaking the lens may cause the internal lens group to shift and noise may occur, but this is not a malfunction. Although the internal lens group shifts due to vibration such as when the lens is carried, this will not affect aspects such as performance.
