Canon RF200-800mm F6.3-9 is USM Super-telephoto Zoom Lens, Mirrorless, Powerful Zoom Range, Comfortable Handheld Shooting, for Wildlife, Nature, Outdoor Sports, Compact & Lightweight

If you haven't seen it in person then heres some basic first hand experience from me. Yes, its bigger then in the picture. Yes it a bit heavy when you handle it for long periods without a tripod. Yes, picture quality it better then expected. Yes, it feels good in hand and yes, its worth the price.

Absolutely terrific. For the money, it’s a great, sharp super zoom for the R Bodies. I use this extensively for kids sports, including soccer, baseball, and cross country. The only criticisms I have are completely nitpicky. When attached to a monopod, it’s a breeze to shoot all day. It’s light enough to handhold, but it feels a bit awkward because it’s so big. Again, it’s great great great!

Works for me great pictures up close the autofocus is a plus. Best telephoto lens I’ve ever had.

Love this lens great value for the investment. Light weight for a lens of this size. Autofocus and quality of photo are great.

So far I'm very pleased with the size/handling and images produced with this lens on my full-frame R5. I can't imagine using a fixed focal length lens in the 600 mm to 800 mm range, because I very often find it necessary to back off to 200 mm to locate my subject. This lens is not generally promoted as ideal for sports photography (more zoom than necessary and not fast enough), but I look forward to trying it out at some kids' sporting events.

If you're looking at this lens, it's for the 800mm reach, probably for birds and wildlife. I just got it and took it out for some birding. I used it on the R7 for a 1280mm field of view on the long end. I'm happy with how it performed. Autofocus was speedy and performed well. I'm coming from a first version EF 100-400. So that's all I have to compare the autofocus to. It was faster and more accurate. But not by miles. F9 is not great but that's the trade off and you know it going in. You're going to have to use high ISO. Today was overcast but I was able to stay at ISO 1600 and get nice shots. Of course it would have been better with more light, but with the great IS of the lens and R7 you can get by with a lower shutter speed. The female Norther Harrier was shot at 800mm f9 ISO 1600 1/640. It was pretty still on the perch so it worked. If it was in flight I would have needed ISO 3200 at least, and even then have to work to get a good shot. So yes, f9 is something you'll have to work with. If you use it on an R5 or 6 it will be better but then you'll loose the reach of the R7. You'll probably need noise reduction, I use camera raw and while it's slow on my PC the results are good. None of these images used it though. Overall it's a great lens and I had a great time using it today and look forward to many more days of fun with it. There's no other way to get this reach for anywhere near this price. If you want something faster, get this and rent a 600 f4 or 800 f5.6 for a day to get it out of your system. Then enjoy the fact you can carry this around and use it all the time.

Is it heavy? oh yeah, you are going to want at minimum a good strap. Will you need good light? Oh yes If you are cool with that, this lens is awesome and really fun to shoot with. For around 2K, you are getting a lot of glass. Primarily when you take long distance pictures you will be fighting some atmospheric distortion effects, otherwise, your goal is to fill the frame with as much detail as you can, and with this lens, you can certainly get there. The barrel zoom is kind of annoying, however, for $2K, again, you are going to get some tradeoffs. I have mine paired with an R7 with a crop sensor, took a couple of these pictures last weekend in some ideal lighting coonditions. Judge for yourself.

Awesome! I'm new to photography, but I attached it to my R5 and took it out to a local pond to try my hand at some bird photos. It doesn't disappoint. Images are sharp, autofocus is fast. I was also using the 1.4 extension and the photos turned out great. Because of the higher f-stops you'll likely need to do a little degraining in lower light situations, but Lightroom does a fantastic job with that.

Increíble lente, es el mejor que tengo actualmente y por su precio es de mis mejores inversiones, me encanta no tengo nada malo que decir del producto. Incluso lo uso para astrofotografia

This 200-800mm is a true zoom monster and an absolute must-have if you need a powerful zoom lens. I use it with my R6 Mark II, and the images are as crisp and sharp as with my L-series lenses. Yes, it looks big at first glance, especially compared to the RF 100-400mm, but that's an unfair comparison since this is a 200-800mm. It's also rain and dust resistant, and the price is unbeatable for what you get.

Llego en excelente estado y en cuanto a funcionamiento es excelente

I bought this 200-600mm lens off Amazon and I’m honestly really happy with it so far. The quality feels great, and the pictures are coming out crisp and clear. I was a little unsure at first ordering a lens like this online, but it has definitely exceeded my expectations. It’s been a great addition to my camera gear, especially for getting closer shots without losing detail. Overall, I’m very pleased with the lens and would recommend it to anyone looking for good quality and sharp photos.

Can't believe how good the lens is for the cost. Actually added a 1:4 convertor and with a little bit of work in software like Topaz the results are very very good. Not the lightest lens but that's to be expected with that kind of range.
