The Canon RF 85mm f/2 Macro Lens Flash Kit is a comprehensive solution to bridge compatibility between the RF 85mm f/1.8 and MT-26EX-RT Macro Twin Lite. Key features include:
The Canon RF 85mm f/2 Macro Lens Flash Kit includes:
Canon RF Mount. The Canon RF 85mm f/2 Macro IS STM belongs to Canon’s line of RF-mount lenses. It’s compatible with RF cameras, such as the EOS R / EOS RP / EOS R5 / EOS R6. It does not work with Canon EF-mount cameras.
Versatile 1:2 Macro. This unique lens’s combination of short-telephoto versatility, 1:2 macro magnification, and a 1.15-foot minimum focusing distance make it great for a range of applications including portrait, event and macro photography. Its bright f/2 aperture and rounded nine-blade diaphragm give you great low-light shooting capability and shallow depth of field.
Advanced Optics. This lens’s eleven-group/twelve-element optical formula includes one UD (Ultra low Dispersion) element that minimizes aberrations while ensuring clarity.
Built-In Autofocus. This lens uses a ring-type Stepping Motor to provide fast, accurate, and nearly silent autofocus performance for both still and video shooters. You also get full-time manual-focus override for precision adjustments.
Optical Image Stabilization. The RF 85mm f/2’s built-in image stabilizer compensates for five stops of camera shake, so that you can shoot in lower light at slower shutter speeds without worry. To further improve macro performance, the lens also has a Hybrid IS setting that compensates for angular and shift-type camera movements to specifically benefit close-up shooting.
Control Ring. A configurable Control Ring can be used to adjust a variety of exposure settings, including aperture, ISO, and exposure compensation.
Flash Adapter. Bridge compatibility between Canon’s RF 85mm f/2 Macro IS STM Lens and MT-26EX-RT Macro Twin Lite with this Canon AD-M1-MA Macro Flash Adapter for RF 85mm f/2 Macro! This adapter only fits the dimensions of the 85mm f/2 Macro IS STM, and will not work with any other lens. If you have multiple lenses you want to use the flash with, we rent a complete kit with three lens adapters.
Radio Flash for Macro Shooting. The Canon MT-26EX-RT Macro Twin Lite is designed for macro shooting and provides the benefits of radio-flash capabilities. Its two flash heads illuminate up-close subjects, and they give you a guide number of 85.3’ at ISO 100 when fired simultaneously. You also have the option of manually dialing in settings down to 1/512 power.
Configurable Flash Heads. Both of the flash heads are detachable, so you can position them around your subject to produce a range of useful lighting setups. Additionally, you can use Canon’s 2.4 GHz wireless triggering system found in the 600EX II-RT / 430EX III-RT / ST-E3-RT Speedlite Transmitter to easily incorporate other flashes into your lighting configuration. When the heads are attached to the lens, you can rotate them 60° horizontally and 45° vertically. Each head also includes a removable diffuser for greater fine tuning.
Additional Features. The illuminated LCD guarantees that you’ll be able to adjust this flash’s settings even in low light, and the updated white LCD focus-assist lamps help you accurately focus on subjects at close range. This flash is powered by four AA batteries, and its recycling time is from 0.1 to 5.5 seconds.
