    Thanks to the STM motor, focusing is fast and precise and works in near-silence – making it perfect for video, with smooth focus movements.

    Reveal details you haven’t seen before with a twist of the zoom ring. At 210mm the RF-S 55-210mm F5-7.1 IS STM offers a maximum magnification of 0.28x, helping you focus close and not disturb your subject or cast shadows over it – perfect for spontaneous close encounters

    Get creative with beautiful highlights and bokeh

    Experiment with out-of-focus highlights thanks to a 7-blade near-circular aperture and use the telephoto power and a wide aperture to achieve a shallower depth-of-field to separate your subject, capturing beautiful bokeh with extra depth and impact

    Smooth, quiet focusing with instinctive control

    Switch quickly between different modes to shoot and film like a pro thanks to a combined lens control and manual focus ring. An STM focusing motor on the lens works virtually silently
