It&#8217;ll accept filters and adapters via a 77mm thread, weighs 1070g (370g lighter than the Canon EF 70-200mm f2.8 L IS III USM)\u00a0and will cost \u00a32,699.99 when it goes on sale in early December.<\/p>\n<h4>Canon RF 85mm F1.2L USM DS<\/h4>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_132302&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 620px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-132302 size-large\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Canon-85mm-DS-Hands-On_LR-1-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">The new RF 85mm F1.2L USM DS coupled to the Canon EOS R<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<p>Meanwhile, the new RF 85mm F1.2L USM DS is identical in size and exterior design to Canon\u2019s RF 85mm F1.2L USM lens, but differs in the way it has a Defocus Smoothing coating applied to the front and rear of inner elements, which gives a soft-edged look to foreground and background blur at wide\u00a0apertures.<\/p>\n<p>As well as appealing to portrait photographers who\u2019d like their lens to smoothly blur the entire outline of bokeh and make subjects pop from the background, Canon expects the lens to deliver the desired \u2018cinematic\u2019 look\u00a0many video content creators strive for, across multiple genres from documentary to film.<\/p>\n<p>It has\u00a0an 85mm minimum focus distance, offers a control ring for additional customisable control over settings and is dust and water resistant, just like the\u00a0new RF 70-200mm F2.8L IS USM. Filters and adapters are accepted via an 82mm thread and it weighs 1195g.
