Consistent clarity across the zoom range
The RF 75-300mm f4-5.6 features a carefully constructed optical design with 13 elements arranged in 9 groups, ensuring a well-balanced image quality from 75mm to 300mm. A Super Spectra Coating minimises flare and ghosting, delivering high-contrast results with accurate colour reproduction even in backlit conditions. With a 7-blade aperture diaphragm delivering smooth, natural background blur, the lens enables creative subject isolation without compromising sharpness.
Reliable autofocus and subject tracking
The RF 75-300mm f4-5.6 uses a DC motor to drive fast, dependable autofocus, supporting stills and video. When paired with EOS R System cameras, Canon’s Dual Pixel CMOS AF system enables accurate subject detection across the frame, maintaining consistent focus throughout the zoom range. A minimum focusing distance of 1.5 metres at 300mm allows detailed close-up composition, while the responsive focus performance makes it easier to track moving wildlife, athletes, and distant subjects.
Lightweight design for maximum portability
At only 507g and measuring 146.1mm when retracted, the RF 75-300mm f4-5.6 remains highly portable without sacrificing performance. Its compact size and balanced weight distribution make it ideal for handheld wildlife, sports and action photography, where mobility is essential. The lightweight build reduces fatigue during extended sessions, supporting easier, more responsive tracking of moving subjects even when shooting without a monopod or support.
Seamless compatibility with Canon EOS R cameras
Designed with an RF-mount, the RF 75-300mm f4-5.6 integrates fully with Canon’s EOS R System. It maintains a compact, well-balanced pairing with lightweight EOS R bodies such as the EOS R100, and delivers an extended 120-480mm equivalent focal length on APS-C sensor models. A 58mm front filter thread accepts a range of accessories, while compatibility with the ET-60 lens hood helps reduce unwanted flare from stray light.

During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.
Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan).
