Weighing just 270g and delivering 4.5 stops of optical stabilization, this lens provides a remarkably portable 88–336mm equivalent reach for APS-C EOS R cameras. Its STM motor enables smooth, near-silent autofocus for video, while two UD elements and Super Spectra Coating maintain contrast and suppress aberrations. This is the ideal lightweight telephoto for budget-conscious travel and street photographers who need handheld reach without heavy gear.
