Suited for full-frame cinema cameras with RF lens mount compatibility, the Canon CN-R 50mm T1.3 L F Cinema Prime Lens renders crisp images with rich contrast. An 11-blade iris and maximum T1.3 aperture make for a natural bokeh effect with a wide depth of field and smooth image falloff. A consistent warm color balance ensures natural color reproduction particularly suited for skin tone capture. The dual-pixel focus guide reduces focus breathing while providing framing stability. Lens markings are displayed in feet, and the focus ring rotates 300° for precision.

8K HDR Image Capture
The CN-R lenses are rated for 8K HDR image capture for high-quality color rendition and sharp detail throughout your image. Multiple lens coatings correct various aberrations and create the Canon-characteristic warm image tone. Color reproduction is consistent across the series, minimizing the need for color correction in post. The 8K chromatic aberration correction reduces color bleeding, while the light-shielding design and optimized coatings prevent unwanted ghosting or flares.
Select Camera Compatibility
Currently, the CN-R lens series brings select feature compatibility to Canon EOS C70 and R5 C camera models. This includes distortion correction, which is facilitated via high-speed data transfer for transferring metadata and lens characteristics directly to the camera. Dual-pixel focus guides, peripheral illumination, and chromatic aberration correction are exclusive to these camera models as well.
Intuitive Lens Switching
Common gearing positions, 114mm front diameter, 105mm filter diameter, and shared focus rotation range ensure consistency across the lens series. Use the same follow focus system, matte box, lens filters, or other tools, no matter the focal length mounted on your camera.

are these lenses good for still photography?
Asked by: Arthur
The Canon CN-R 50mm T1.3 L F Cinema Prime Lens (Canon RF) is designed for cine use. While the lens can be used for photography, the optics are designed for a softer image, which is desirable for video, rather than a sharper image, which is desirable for photography.
