Overview
With its flattering perspective, fast f/1.4 aperture and L-series optics, the RF 85mm F1.4L VCM Lens is built for distinctive portrait photography. As a lightweight, high-performance hybrid camera lens, it comes with game-changing video technology too – including a Voice Coil Motor¹ for quick and quiet autofocus, an Iris Ring² for smooth aperture adjustments, plus minimal focus breathing. Aspheric and UD elements deliver outstanding sharpness where you need it most, while 11 aperture blades provide cinematic bokeh and highlights for video and stills. Designed for hybrid shooters, this versatile RF prime lens is an outstanding 85mm for portraits, a creative product photography lens and a sublime short telephoto for filmmaking.
Every portrait becomes a masterpiece
A flattering 85mm focal length and uncompromising optical quality make the RF 85mm F1.4L VCM Lens an ideal portrait photography lens. Aspherical and UD elements plus advanced coatings ensure crisp portraits and soft backdrops.
Exceptional artistic freedom, even in low light
Enjoy creative depth-of-field control and brilliant low-light performance, thanks to an ultra-wide f/1.4 maximum aperture and cinematic 11-blade iris.
Lightweight portrait lens with effortless handling
Work instinctively with a short telephoto lens that shares the uniform design of the F1.4 hybrid prime range. Approximately half the size and weight of the RF 85mm F1.2L USM, the RF 85mm F1.4L VCM Lens is built for shooting on the move.
Focus on emotion with rapid precision
Bring spontaneous moments into sharp relief thanks to high-speed VCM¹ autofocus technology for video and stills. The powerful AF actuator ensures controlled focus pulls, with minimal focus breathing for professional video.
Fluid control for hybrid shooters working in video and stills
Adapt the lens to suit your shooting style, with a customisable Lens Control Ring and Lens Function Button. An Iris Ring² offers smooth aperture control for video and stills with selected cameras.
Professional Canon RF prime lens build quality and reliability
Keep on shooting when the conditions turn against you, thanks to L-series construction with an oil-repellent fluorine coating and well-placed weather seals to protect against dust and moisture³.

Get support¹ Important: The Voice Coil Motor in the lens emits a low-level magnetic field. While generally safe to use, we advise consulting your doctor if you have a pacemaker or any other medical device to address any concerns. When the lens is not connected to the camera or when the camera is off may cause internal noise from the lens’s components. This is normal and not a malfunction. Minor movements during transportation do not affect performance.
² Various limitations apply to some cameras
we recommend installing the latest Firmware update on your camera for best performance. Even with latest Firmware update on EOS R, RP, Ra, R3, R5, R6, R6 Mark II, R7, R8, R10, R50, R100 and EOS R5 C when shooting still photos, the aperture value cannot be set using the iris ring.
³ Lenses with dust/moisture resistance are fitted with a rubber ring on the lens mount which may cause slight abrasion of the camera mount. This in no way effects either the lens or camera performance.
*For cameras with an APS-C sized sensor, a crop factor applies giving an equivalent focal length of 1.6x – this means that the 85mm on an APS-C camera will give the field of view equivalent to a 136mm lens on a Full Frame camera. Check camera user manual for further details.
