The Canon RF 28mm f/2.8 STM is a pocket-sized pancake lens that brings a versatile wide-angle perspective to Canon's RF mirrorless lineup without compromising image quality. Measuring just 21mm thick and weighing a mere 130g, it's perfect for street and travel photographers seeking minimal bulk. The lens houses 8 elements in 6 groups, including three aspherical 'Seagull' elements, delivering sharp, distortion-free images across the frame. While it lacks image stabilization, the bright f/2.8 aperture allows for handheld shooting in varied lighting conditions and produces pleasing background separation. Autofocus is driven by a smooth, quiet STM motor, ideal for both stills and video. With a minimum focus distance of 0.23m and a 0.17x magnification ratio, it offers some close-up capability. Compact, affordable, and optically impressive, this RF lens is an excellent choice for photographers who value portability and performance in everyday shooting scenarios.
