Adaptable Capabilities
Air Sphere Coating Utilising the unique Air Sphere Coating (ASC) technology, the RF1200mm f/8L IS USM can suppress ghosting by reducing the reflectivity of light entering from a large angle of incidence and vertically. | Super UD Lens The RF1200mm f/8L IS USM can produce superior image quality with minimal colour fringing from edge to edge of the frame using UD and Super UD Lens. |

Fluorite Lens The RF1200mm f/8L IS USM produces high quality images with minimal chromatic aberration through the use of fluorite lenses. | Optimised Lens Design The elements are arranged in a way that significantly improves image quality. It also allows the lens design to be more compact and lightweight. |
