Canon has today announced the introduction of a brand new ultra-wide zoom lens for the EOS R mirrorless system. Compact and lightweight for a lens of this type, the RF 16-28mm f2.8 IS STM lens is physically similar to the RF 28-70mm f2.8 IS STM and uses a retractable design to reduce its size when stored away. The lens offers 5.5-stops of optical image stabilisation, which increases to 8 stops when used on a camera with in-body image stabilisation.
