11-20mm RXD: nothing escapes this high-performance ultra-wide zoom
The 11-20mm f/2.8 Di III-A RXD (Model B060) is a fast-aperture ultra wide-angle zoom lens for Canon RF-mount APS-C mirrorless cameras. It offers the unprecedented brightness of constant f/2.8 and outstanding portability. Because the fast aperture lets you maintain a high shutter speed even when shooting in dark conditions, you can capture sharp images with minimal hand shake. Everything you see, from daily life to travels, is in your photographic grasp with this lens
Capture dynamic images
Covering focal lengths from 11-20mm, this ultra wide-angle lens features a maximum aperture of f/2.8 and allows users to fully enjoy the distinctive depth-of-field and unique perspective provided by an ultra wide-angle lens. Enjoy a higher degree of photographic freedom than ever before, such as taking regular snapshots at the 20mm end, which has a rather natural angle of view, and then challenging yourself to take powerful ultra wide-angle shots of landscapes or selfies at the wide end – all while enjoying the easy handling, creamy bokeh and other advantages that fast-aperture lenses offer. The lens shines in various scenarios, including architecture, landscape, indoor environmental portraits, travel and interior photography.
Compact and lightweight design
The lens was designed to be exceptionally compact and lightweight, an ideal match with APS-C mirrorless cameras. It has an overall length of 84.2mm and weighs only 340g. Imagine a lens so small and light that it is hard to believe it’s a full-fledged fast-aperture ultra wide-angle zoom and it’s easy to carry. You can concentrate on shooting without worrying about bulk or weight. When used with a compatible APS-C mirrorless camera body, you’ll enjoy carefree handheld shooting of still images and find it comfortable to shoot video even when using a compact tripod or gimbal.
Enjoy outstanding optical performance
The 11-20mm f/2.8 is a high-resolution lens that focuses on superb image quality as a fast-aperture ultra wide-angle zoom. The optical construction includes 12 elements in 10 groups. High resolution performance is maintained across the entire frame with the well-balanced arrangement of two GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) lens elements. Two LD (Low Dispersion) and one XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) lens elements are used to suppress the chromatic aberrations that tend to occur when shooting at the wide-open aperture of fast-aperture lenses. These features combine to render clear, crisp images. In addition, the use of the lens correction features built into cameras lets users harness extra lens performance gains.
Indulge in the exciting world of wide-angle macro with MOD of 0.15m
The MOD (Minimum Object Distance) is just 0.15m at the widest end. This extreme close-range shooting performance allows you to get as close to a subject as you like. The maximum magnification ratio is 1:4 (an astonishing feat for an ultra wide-angle lens) and it unlocks powerful wide-angle macro shooting utilizing the unique perspective that makes near objects look larger and distant objects smaller. Additionally, using the f/2.8 maximum aperture produces a shallower depth-of-field that creates soft bokeh in the background, allowing users to take distinctive images with unique characteristics.
High performance RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) autofocus
The AF drive on the 11-20mm f/2.8 includes an RXD stepping motor unit to help you stay focused on the action by operating quietly and accurately capturing subjects when shooing both still and vide. RXD uses an actuator to precisely control the rotational angle of the motor, allowing it to directly drive the focusing lens without passing through a reduction gear. A sensor that precisely detects the position of the lens enables high-speed and accurate AF, which is ideal when shooting continually moving subjects or recording video. And with a focusing system that is both smooth and quiet, the 11-20mm f/2.8 lets you shoot free of stress or worrying about the drive sound in a quiet environment.
Canon RF-mount is equipped with an AF/MF switch
The 11-20mm f/2.8 for Canon RF-mount is equipped with an AF/MF switch for easier operation. It is also compatible with Tamron lens Utility software. This application enables users to easily update the lens to the latest firmware themselves without going through the camera. On the firmware information screen, you can check the version of your lens and update it if a newer firmware version is available.
Unified 67mm filter diameter
Nearly all Tamron mirrorless lenses have a 67mm filter size. This allows users to use the same filter among a wide range of lenses. PL and ND filters are typically expensive, so sharing saves money. Additionally, this eliminates the need to search for caps with different diameters when switching lenses. All lenses in this series are compact, lightweight and extremely portable, making it easier when carrying multiple lenses at the same time.
