{"product_id":"canon-rf-45mm-f-1-2-stm-lens","title":"Canon RF 45mm F\/1.2 STM Lens","description":"\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\" class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.375rem] font-bold\"\u003eAn Affordable, Fast Standard Prime\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Canon RF 45mm F1.2 STM Lens is a compact, budget-friendly standard prime designed for Canon RF-mount full-frame mirrorless cameras, built for photographers who want the shallow depth of field and bokeh of an f\/1.2 lens without the size, weight, or price of Canon's L-series options. It slots in above the RF 50mm F1.8 STM and below the RF 50mm F1.4L VCM and RF 50mm F1.2L USM lenses in Canon's lineup, offering a genuinely accessible entry point into fast-aperture shooting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\" class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eDesigned for Natural Perspective and Low Light\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis lens is made for shooters who want a versatile everyday prime with strong low-light capability. Its 45mm focal length offers a natural perspective for general-purpose images, only slightly wider than a traditional 50mm, while the ultra-bright f\/1.2 maximum aperture allows for faster shutter speeds in low light and increased control over depth of field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\" class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eCompact, Lightweight Build\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAt just 346g, this is Canon's first RF f\/1.2 lens with autofocus to weigh under 400g, making it notably smaller and lighter than typical f\/1.2 options. The optical design comprises 9 elements in 7 groups, including one aspherical element to suppress spherical aberrations and distortion, along with a Super Spectra coating to minimize ghosting and flare. Note that this lens does not include weather-sealing or optical image stabilization, keeping costs down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\" class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eSmooth, Quiet Autofocus\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe lens uses Canon's STM stepping motor for smooth, fast, and quiet autofocus, well suited to both stills and video work, with full-time manual focus override available. A customizable control ring on the barrel allows quick adjustment of settings like exposure compensation, aperture, or ISO directly from the lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\" class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eKey Features at a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\" class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3 print:block print:space-y-1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLens: Canon RF 45mm F1.2 STM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMount: Canon RF (full-frame, compatible with APS-C RF bodies)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFocal length: 45mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMaximum aperture: f\/1.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eOptical design: 9 elements in 7 groups, including 1 aspherical element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eAperture blades: 9-blade circular diaphragm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eAutofocus: STM stepping motor, full-time manual override\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMinimum focus distance: 45cm, max magnification 0.13x\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eWeight: approx. 346g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFilter diameter: 67mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eExtras: customizable control ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\" class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eA Strong Choice for Everyday Portraits and Low-Light Shooting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Canon RF 45mm F1.2 STM is a smart choice for photographers who want fast-aperture performance and creamy background blur without a premium price tag.
