Being so close-up, you’ll be able to fill the frame with a subject roughly the size of a sparrow, and the maximum close-up magnification is 0.34x which is more than 1/3 life-size.
Optical Image Stabilization with up to 4.5 Stops of Shake Correction
With Optical Image Stabilization of up to 4.5 Stops on the Canon RF 800mm f/5.6 L IS USM Lens, the lens will ensure that it delivers consistently sharp results.
Having this is ideal for when shooting hand-held or mounted on a monopod, the lens Image Stabilization can deliver clear image detail in low-light situations or at lower ISOs while capturing both stills and video.

The Two Focus Presets provides on the RF 800mm lens allow wildlife photographers to pre-focus on two different spots where you’d expect wildlife to appear, and immediately jump to either Memorized position via the playback Ring.
