Zoom into Creativity! Lens Envy – The Compact Power of Canon RF-S 55-210mm
Telephoto lenses used to be quite bulky and heavy, making it a bit of a workout to keep your camera steady. But that’s old news with the latest batch of Canon lenses. Take the RF-S 55-210mm, for instance. This compact telephoto zoom lens brings distant subjects to life with rich colours, whether you’re snapping photos or shooting videos. Over at National Store, we can help you match this lens with the right cameras—like the EOS R and EOS R APS-C full-frame—to tap into the full potential of image stabilisation, all the way up to 7 stops.
What’s really cool about the Canon RF-S 55-210mm is its size. At just 92.9mm long and weighing in at a mere 270g, it won’t make your camera feel like a ton of bricks. It’s the ideal pick for adding more zoom without the zoom lens bulk, making it super easy to slip into your bag and take on any adventure.
Benefits of using a Canon telephoto lens
Canon lenses like the RF-S 55-210mm allow you to take stunning photos of subjects that you cannot approach or are too far from you. This telephoto lens can create the perfect compression effect that makes it seem like the background and foreground subjects are closer than they actually are. By increasing the focal length, you can blur the foreground and background to create a lovely bokeh.
Get closer
Canon RF-S 55-210mm is not just for taking photos from afar. It lets you get up close and bring your subject closer at maximum focal length. The lens offers up to 0.28x magnification, with a minimum 0.73m focusing distance.
Get creative with your shots.
Do you like to take photos at night or in low light? Canon RF-S 55-210mm naturally offers up to 4.5 stops of image stabilisation, which can be a maximum of 7 stops with a compatible camera. In addition, an effective focal length of 88mm to 336mm is possible with full-frame and APS-C cameras. The lens helps you easily switch focus between subjects during video recording because it intuitively adjusts for the change in field view.
