The EXTENDER RF 2x is the perfect choice for enthusiast and professional photographers seeking more magnification from their RF lenses. Doubling focal length, it is ideal for press, nature and sport photographers.
Extend the reach of select Canon RF-mount lenses with the Extender RF 2x. This teleconverter magnifies the image by 2x and retains full communication between the lens and camera body, enabling metering, autofocus, and image stabilization as well as the transmission of Exif data. Additionally, the Extender RF is dust and water resistant and has a heat shield exterior to ensure optimal performance in a range of conditions.
The Extender RF 2x is the perfect choice for enthusiast and professional photographers seeking more magnification from their RF lenses. Doubling focal length, it is ideal for press, nature and sport photographers.
The extender features high-refraction, low-dispersion glass to control curvature of field and chromatic aberration of magnification for the highest image quality.
As well as optimised lens coatings, a 3-layer combined lens helps to reduce ghosting by reducing the surfaces in contact with the air as much as possible.
The exterior is coated in the same white heat shield coating as used on the RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1L IS USM and RF 70-200mm lens to prevent deterioration in performance in high temperatures.

Extends a super telephoto lens' focal length by 2x, so that an 800mm focal length, for example, becomes 1200mm. The extra reach makes it possible to get larger close-ups with the original camera resolution.
A large aperture lens placed near the image sensor, the use of high-refractive, low-dispersion glass, and three cemented lenses that minimise air contact surface suppress field curvature, lens aberration and flare and ghosting, hence optimising corner-to-corner image quality.
The lens features a vibration- and impact-resistant structure with a dust- and drip-resistant design, ready to withstand nature, motorsports, and other harsh professional and advanced shooting scenes.
Supporting heavy lenses is all in a day's work for its robust, durable body.
Shooting at super-long focal lengths means a shallower depth-of-field, which can make focusing tricky. On the Extender RF 2x, built-in microprocessors communicate with the lens, achieving high-precision AF over an area as large as up to 80% x 80% (horizontal x vertical) of the focal plane* helping you to lock focus on your subjects more easily.
