We’ve put together this complete list of Canon RF & RF-S lenses to provide you with an overview of all of the Canon RF-Mount lenses that are available today.
We’ve also included the latest firmware version / update for each lens, because lens firmware updates can often address compatibility and performance issues.
Table of Contents[Hide][Show]
Please note that the firmware download links are for Sony’s US Support Site unless for some reason they are not available then we have linked to the UK Support Site. However the firmware is not country specific so you can still download firmware from the US and install it on a lens purchased in Europe and vice versa.

Canon RF Lens FAQs
When the Canon EOS system was introduced, the name stood for Electro-Optical System. As the EF mount was a fully electronic mount, EF stood for Electronic Focus. Canon’s project to develop the next generation of EOS cameras had the aim of “Reimagining optical excellence” and was codenamed Project R. This led to the official name of the EOS R System. For the lenses, a fusion of EF and R resulted in the name RF lenses.
Canon says that what makes RF lenses better than their EF counterparts is the shorter flange distance between the rear lens element and the sensor. This allows them to focus the light more accurately across the entire sensor resulting in sharper images. From comparisons carried out so far it does appear that RF lenses are slightly sharper than their EF counterparts.
Canon RF lenses have taken years of research and development to achieve very high levels of optical performance whilst reducing size and weight at the same time, unfortunately this level of technology doesn’t come cheap. Canon lenses have never been the cheapest on the market either.
There is currently no adapter on the market that will allow you to use RF lenses on an EF-mount camera.
Currently the only cameras that support RF lenses are the Canon R, RP, R1, R3, R5, R5II, R5C, R6, R6 II, R7, R8, R10, R50, R100 and Ra.
There are currently 41 RF / RF-S lenses available from Canon, 19 primes and 22 zooms.
Great site. This is my go-to source for checking to see if my RF lenses have up-to-date firmware, and I just updated one of my lenses because of it. Thanks. Since your replies to comments show that you are still keeping the site current, I’ll mention an obvious one: In your list of cameras that support RF lenses, you can add the R5 II.
Cheers Joe. Glad to hear that you find it useful 🙂 Thanks for pointing that out too, I’ve updated it now along with a few more minor updates. All the best, Tim
my Canon RF 10-20mm F4 L IS STM´s firmware is 1.0.5
Thanks for that Peter. Normally they are on 1.0.0 when first released and there has not yet been any firmware updates for the RF 10-20mm F4. I’ve updated the version to 1.0.5
For RF extenders
The RF 200-800mm is also supported
Thanks for spotting that Wim. I’ve added the support for the 200-800 now.
R10 is missing from this list
“ What cameras can use RF lenses?
Currently the only cameras that support RF lenses are the Canon R, RP, R3, R5, R5C, R6, R6 II, R7, R8, R50, R100 and Ra.”
Thanks for spotting that David! Added the R10 now as well.
I didn’t see the 5.2 VR lens on the list. Is that still being produced?
Cheers Kevin. That’s actually my bad. I’ve added it now as it’s still being produced as far as I’m aware.
For Canon RF Extenders, these two lenses are also supported:
RF 400 f/2.8
RF 600 f/4
Their website is inconsistent about mentioning this, but you can see it in the product listing for the lenses and in the support pages for the extenders. The product pages for the extenders is missing these two lenses. I talked to Canon CPS, and they confirmed support for these two RF super-teles.
Thanks for your website.
Many thanks for this Marc. I’ve added both lenses to the table for the extenders now. Have a nice Christmas!
