Canon RF 200-800mm f/6.3-9 IS USM

Correction; in my previous review I wrote that it is annoying that the lens extends while walking, but there is a ring on the lens that can lock this. I had overlooked this, my apologies!

A surprisingly powerful super telephoto zoom with an insane range of up to 800mm, ideal for wildlife and sports. Despite its hefty size (2kg), it can still be used handheld, thanks in part to strong image stabilisation. Autofocus is fast and quiet, image quality remains impressive up to ±600mm, then slightly softer. No L-series finish, but solid and compatible with RF extenders for even more range.

• Large zoom range, silent AF, good IS, sharp up to 600mm

– f/9 at 800mm, heavy, no tripod foot standard Conclusion: Top lens for those who want to see far without an L-price tag.

The ideal lens for birds and wildlife during a walk. The photos are really sharp! Its weight makes it easy to take with you on a not too long walk. A tripod is not necessary, because of the stabilizer in the lens you can still take pictures with it by hand. The zoom function is really nice. This allows you to first take a small bird in the picture and then zoom in on it. Another big advantage of this lens is that you don't immediately have a big problem when you are surprised by a rain shower. It can handle it! Personally, I think its only disadvantage is that it extends when you walk with it. Unfortunately, there is no lock on it. But for me, that is only a very small disadvantage on this fantastic lens that does not outweigh its advantages.
