Telephoto Lenses

Telephoto lenses get you closer to your subject, a great solution for photography when physical restraints prevent you from getting nearer. At Canon, we have a wide range of telephoto lenses that can capture what the eye can barely see.

RF 200-800mm F6.3-9 IS USM Lens is our full frame super telephoto zoom lens for EOS R System cameras. The 200-800mm focal length is the longest reaching telephoto zoom lens for the RF mount, ideal for shooting nature and wildlife.

Popular for a wide range of photography genres, our range of Canon telephoto lenses includes options for beginners through to professionals.

A telephoto lens makes subjects appear closer than they actually are, which is great for when you can’t get close to your subject. This has an artistic purpose as well as a usability one, as it makes the seperation between subject and background clearer.

A Canon telephoto lens offers the creativity you expect from modern telephoto lenses, with wide maximum apertures allowing for daytime through to low-light use, perfect for wildlife and sports photography.

If you are struggling to find out which telephoto lenses you need, check out our How to Read a Canon Lens guide for further information.
