RF5.2mm f/2.8L Dual Fisheye
The Canon rf 5.2mm f/2.8 Dual Fisheye is just incredible, here is our take…
The parallax of the left and right fisheye lenses in the RF5.2mm f/2.8L Dual Fisheye captures 180-degree 3D stereoscopic images. To ease the recording of Virtual Reality (VR) recordings through a single camera, a single sensor is used to gather light from both lenses.
- Streamline Virtual Reality Production Workflow
- Large Aperture of f/2.8
- Dual-Lens Electro-Magnetic Diaphragm
Electro Magnetic Diaphragm with Dual Lenses (EMD)
RF5.2mm f/2.8L Dual Fisheye has EMD, which adjusts exposure electronically, on both the left and right sides of the lens.
Even in low-light conditions, the RF5.2mm f/2.8L Dual Fisheye gives great results.
ND Filters
With the RF5.2mm f/2.8L Dual Fisheye, you may utilize Neutral Density (ND) filters while photographing in the open air.
SWC
Virtual reality (VR) imagery may suffer from ghosting due to backlighting, which can be reduced by using Subwavelength Structure Coating (SWC).
Canon Dual Fisheye is Dust- & Drip-Resistance
A excellent dust and drip-resistance is provided by the lens’s sealings at all critical places.
Software support allows for a more efficient and simplified workflow during post-production.
