📖 Overview
The Canon RF100-400mm is a super-telephoto zoom lens that offers a long reach at a relatively affordable price, especially when paired with the RF 2x extender. It's well-suited for wildlife and sports photography, where distance is crucial. However, the slow aperture range, especially when combined with the extender, means it really needs bright conditions to shine.
