14mm F1.4L VCM RF Lens
The RF 14mm F1.4L VCM is a lightweight, ultra-wide hybrid lens with an ultra-fast aperture. Designed for professionals, this versatile prime lens delivers exceptional edge-to-edge quality for stills and video - ideal for astrophotography, landscapes, interiors, drone footage and more.
The 114° diagonal angle of view and F1.4 aperture unlock new creative possibilities, while the L-series construction, smooth VCM AF actuator and advanced optical design - featuring GMo Aspheric, Fluorite, UD and BR lens elements - ensure an outstanding performance in tough conditions.
Canon's decades of expertise in optical innovation are unmistakable in this lens and its impressive specifications. Packing an ultra-wide 14mm focal length, an ultra-fast F1.4 aperture and remarkable edge-to-edge image quality into such a portable design makes the lens far more appealing and convenient to use.
The RF 14mm F1.4L VCM further expands the F1.4 Hybrid Prime family, which now consists of six focal lengths: 14mm, 20mm, 24mm, 35mm, 50mm and 85mm. The RF 14mm F1.4L VCM has the same maximum aperture, smooth VCM autofocus and uniform design as the other primes, allowing it to be used seamlessly with the rest of the range.
An ultra-wide view for expansive drama
Capture thrilling images and video in wide-open or confined spaces using a 14mm hybrid prime lens with an immense 114° diagonal field of view.
Shoot more freely in low light
A bright F1.4 aperture lets you use faster shutter speeds without pushing ISO higher, while the shallow depth of field adds creative freedom for an ultra-wide lens.
Uncompromising image quality
Enjoy greater clarity thanks to the use of advanced UD, BR and Fluorite lenses to control chromatic aberration, plus SWC and ASC coatings to reduce ghosting and flare.
Sharper details across the frame
Three GMo aspherical elements suppress sagittal coma flare for finely rendered point light sources - such as stars in astrophotography - and superb edge-to-edge precision.
Precise control for photography and video
Hybrid features include a dedicated smooth-action Iris Ring3, 11-blade circular aperture, minimal focus breathing and a Voice Coil Motor1 for fast, smooth and quiet autofocus.
Lightweight, weather-resistant construction2
Be ready to take on the toughest assignments, thanks to a durable L-series design. At approx. 578g, this surprisingly light F1.4 ultra-wide lens is made for shooting on the move.

Notes:
*1 Important: The Voice Coil Motor (VCM) in the lens emits a low-level magnetic field. While generally safe to use, we advise consulting your doctor if you have a pacemaker or any other medical device to address any concerns. When the lens is not connected to the camera or when the camera is off may cause internal noise from the lens's components. This is normal and not a malfunction. Minor movements during transportation do not affect performance.
*2 Although the lens features dust- and water-resistant construction, this cannot completely prevent dust or water droplets from entering the lens.
*3 Iris ring is inactive for controlling aperture in still photo shooting when using the lens with EOS R system cameras released before May 2024.
