Features of the RF24mm F1.8 Macro IS STM Lens:

• Fast F1.8 maximum aperture for great control over depth of field and bokeh, low-light shooting, and video recording, with fast and reliable autofocus.
• Excellent image quality: highlights include a UD (Ultra-low Dispersion) glass element, one aspheric element, and Canon SSC (Super Spectra Coating) to help minimize ghosting and flare.
• Minimum focus distance of approx. 5.5 In./0.14 m; close-up magnification 0.5x at minimum focus distance.
• Optical image stabilization — up to 5.5 stops* of shake correction. Up to 6.5 stops Coordinated IS when paired with EOS R series cameras featuring In-Body Image Stabilizer (IBIS).
• Dedicated, programmable Control Ring with click-stop operation.
• Equivalent to approximately 38mm coverage when used on cameras with APS-C size image sensors.
• Impressively compact and light at only 0.6 lbs/270g.
• Circular (9 blades) aperture for beautiful, soft backgrounds.

Features of the Canon RF15-30mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM Lens

• Equivalent to approximately 24–48mm coverage when used on cameras with APS-C size image sensors.
• Excellent image quality: highlights include two UD (Ultra-low Dispersion) glass elements, one aspheric element, and Canon SSC (Super Spectra Coating) to help minimize ghosting and flare.
• Optical Image Stabilization — up to 5.0 stops* of shake correction. Up to 7.0 stops of Coordinated IS when paired with EOS R series cameras featuring In-Body Image Stabilizer (IBIS).
• Equivalent to approximately 24–48mm coverage when used on cameras with APS-C size image sensors.
• Minimum focus distance of approx. 11 in./0.28m (5.1 In./0.13m in manual focus at 15mm zoom position.)
• Canon STM (stepping motor) focus drive, especially suited for smooth, quiet video AF operation.
• Impressively compact and light — approx. 0.9 lbs./390g.
