How To Use The Canon RF 24mm f1.4 L VCM Z Lens
Advanced Optical Construction For Sharp Results
The Canon RF 24mm f1.4 L VCM Z is built with optical precision at its core. It features an impressive construction of 15 elements in 11 groups, including advanced aspherical and UD elements that minimise aberrations and maximise sharpness across the frame. The 11-blade circular aperture creates smooth, natural bokeh with beautifully defocused backgrounds for striking portraits. Combined with the fast f1.4 aperture, this lens excels in low light, delivering precise depth-of-field control and vibrant, high-contrast images in any setting.
Engineered for Speed and Precision
Canon masterfully combines two advanced focusing motors—Nano USM and Voice Coil Motor (VCM) technology—creating a responsive and near-silent autofocus system. The Nano USM ultrasonic motor tracks moving subjects with smooth, continuous focus adjustments. The VCM is a linear motor designed for rapid, direct shifts, moving larger lens elements more precisely to prevent overshoot. This combination makes the RF 24mm f1.4 L VCM Z Lens perfect for quick focus transitions in both low light and high-speed shooting.
Video Optimised for Cinematic Quality
Tailored for hybrid shooters, the RF 24mm f1.4 L VCM Z offers a range of features to elevate cinematic quality. The dedicated Iris Ring allows manual control over aperture transitions, letting users make smooth, silent adjustments to exposure on the fly. Minimal focus breathing preserves a consistent frame, making it easy to switch focus without altering the shot’s composition. These optimisations make this lens a strong choice for creators who need versatile, high-quality video performance.
Compact, Lightweight Build
The RF 24mm f1.4 L VCM Z Lens weighs approximately 20% less than its EF predecessor, and offers a lightweight yet durable build, ideal for mobile professionals. It is dust and moisture-resistant, with a fluorine coating on the front element to repel dust, moisture, and smudges. Designed as part of Canon’s L-series, this lens withstands frequent, rigorous use, delivering the reliability that professional creators require.
