The Canon RF 45mm f/1.2 STM Lens is a fast aperture prime that delivers f/1.2 performance without the size, weight, or price of traditional ultra-fast glass. This compact standard prime offers smooth bokeh, strong low-light capability, and expressive shallow depth of field in a body weighing just 346 grams. The 45mm focal length provides a natural perspective close to human vision, making it well-suited for portraits, lifestyle photography, street shooting, and everyday creative work.
The Canon RF 45mm f/1.2 STM Lens presents an advantageous choice for creators seeking an economical and compact setup. It offers exceptional wide-aperture performance, captivating low-light imagery, and soft, expressive visuals. Whether capturing portraits, lifestyle content, or everyday narratives, this lens delivers a refined appearance directly from the camera.
Canon designed this lens to deliver the creative possibilities of an f/1.2 aperture in a practical, portable package. The optical design includes nine elements in seven groups, with one PMo (plastic-molded) aspherical element. This marks the first time Canon has used a PMo aspherical element in an f/1.2 lens, allowing for effective aberration control while keeping the lens compact and affordable.
The gear-type STM stepping motor with magnetic detection system enables quick, quiet autofocus that works well for both stills and video recording. Nine rounded aperture blades produce smooth, pleasing out-of-focus rendering in backgrounds and foregrounds.
Canon describes this lens as delivering "character" rather than clinical sharpness. At f/1.2, the lens produces images with a distinct rendering style that emphasizes smooth transitions between in-focus and out-of-focus areas. The wide aperture enables subject separation that isolates your subject from busy backgrounds, creating a three-dimensional quality in your photographs.
The lens uses Canon's Super Spectra Coating (SSC) to reduce flare and ghosting. Digital lens optimization corrects for distortion in-camera, contributing to the compact optical design. A fixed rear-lens focusing system helps minimize image quality shifts across different focus distances.
The Canon RF 45mm f/1.2 STM mounts to all Canon EOS R-series bodies, including full-frame models like the EOS R5, R6 series, R8, and RP, as well as APS-C models like the EOS R7 and R50. On APS-C cameras, the lens provides a 72mm equivalent field of view, making it useful for portrait work.
The customizable control ring at the front of the lens barrel allows you to adjust aperture, ISO, or exposure compensation depending on your preference. This lens does not include optical image stabilization, so photographers working in low light at slower shutter speeds should consider pairing it with a body that offers in-body stabilization. The ES-73B lens hood is sold separately. Protect your investment with a quality lens case for transport and storage.
This lens serves photographers who want the creative potential of an f/1.2 aperture without committing to the size and cost of L-series glass. Portrait photographers benefit from the smooth background separation. Street photographers appreciate the compact form factor and fast aperture for candid work in mixed lighting. Lifestyle and content creators can achieve professional-looking shallow depth of field on a budget.
The 45mm focal length offers a slightly wider view than traditional 50mm lenses while maintaining a natural perspective. This makes it versatile for environmental portraits, indoor events, travel photography, and general-purpose shooting. For photographers building a Canon camera kit, this lens complements wider zooms by adding fast-aperture capability for selective focus work.
No. This lens does not include optical image stabilization. When shooting handheld in low light, pair it with an EOS R-series body that offers in-body image stabilization, or use a tripod for slower shutter speeds.
The Canon RF 45mm f/1.2 STM accepts 67mm filters. This is a common size that allows for easy sharing with other lenses in your kit.
No. This lens does not have weather sealing. Take care when shooting in dusty or wet conditions, and consider protective accessories for challenging environments.
Yes. The RF 45mm f/1.2 STM is fully compatible with APS-C EOS R-series bodies like the Canon EOS R7 and R50. On these cameras, the 1.6x crop factor produces a 72mm equivalent field of view.
No. The Canon ES-73B lens hood is sold separately. A hood helps reduce flare and provides physical protection for the front element.
The Canon RF 45mm f/1.2 STM Lens puts f/1.2 performance within reach for photographers who value creative flexibility, compact size, and practical pricing. Samy's Camera offers fast shipping, expert support, and a full selection of Canon lenses and accessories to help you build the kit that fits your vision.
