Canon RF 14mm f/1.4L VCM Lens

The Canon RF 14mm f/1.4L VCM Lens sets a new benchmark for wide-angle excellence. Ultra-wide, ultra-fast and ultra-light, this lens is designed to inspire photography and video production on a grand scale.

With its expansive 114° diagonal angle of view, the RF 14mm f/1.4L VCM is a great choice for capturing sweeping landscapes as well as indoor spaces. An exceptionally bright f/1.4 aperture offers greater flexibility while shooting in low light or when using a shallow depth of field to help isolate your subject.

Despite its ultra-wide design and fast aperture, the RF 14mm f/1.4L VCM remains lightweight, making it a highly practical lens for outdoor and travel photography, or working from a drone. Weighing around 578g, it’s built for shooting on the move, and the durable L-series construction ensures it is ready for demanding assignments.

Delivering remarkable image quality from the centre to the corners, even wide open at f/1.4, the RF 14mm f/1.4L VCM achieves a level of performance rare for such a wide, fast design, thanks to the extensive use of specialised lens elements and coatings. Three glass-moulded (GMo) aspherical elements suppress sagittal coma flare for finely rendered point light sources such as stars, while Fluorite, BR and UD lenses reduce chromatic aberration. Ghosting and flare are minimised through the use of Canon’s sophisticated SWC and ASC coatings.

The superb edge-to-edge precision at f/1.4 is one reason the RF 14mm f/1.4L VCM excels at astrophotography. The large maximum aperture lets you use faster shutter speeds to reduce star trails, while keeping image quality high and ISO levels manageable. Thanks to its ultra-wide angle of view, it is also an ideal lens for professional landscape and architecture photography or for shooting tight interiors. Additionally, the hybrid design of the RF 14mm f/1.4L VCM, which incorporates smooth, precise AF tracking capability along with focus breathing suppression, 11-blade circular aperture and dedicated Iris Ring, makes it an outstanding lens for photographers who also need to shoot video.
