Review: Having read mixed reviews about the Canon RF 800mm F11 I was a little reluctant to buy one but I need the extra reach so when Amazon dropped the price I took a punt. Well I'm glad I did. Image quality from the RF 800 is noticeably better than my Sigma 150-600 with 1.4x converter. AF is better too despite the slow F11 fixed aperture. On my Canon EOS R6, the AF is acceptably fast and accurate. Whilst the AF is not as fast as say a Canon EF100-400 or even the Sigma 150-600 without the converter, it is fast enough for me to use for motorsports and aviation. I suspect it might not be quite quick enough for wildlife photographers wanting to shoot birds in flight and other fast moving animals but for reasonably predictable things like cars and bikes racing around a track it seems to work fine. The photos attached were taken with this lens on my R6 with servo AF and vehicle tracking. Out of the camera the images lack a little contrast and need a little sharpness boost. I have sharpened them and applied auto-contrast as well as increasing the the saturation by 5% using XnConvert. That gives me the results I'm looking for. The big bonus with this lens is the weight...or lack of. It is incredibly light for a lens of this focal length which makes it easier and less tiring to hand hold and carry around for long periods. Coupled with the excellent image stabilisation it makes it a joy to use all day. One thing to note; if you want to use the Canon ET-101 lens hood (or JJC alternative) and a UV filter at the same time you need to use a UV filter with a VERY slim frame. The only one I've found that works is the Urth 95mm UV Lens Filter (Plus+) here: https://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B088C3RFQT/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1. Most other UV filters have frames that are too big for the hood to go over. The only thing I don't like about this lens is the tripod socket. It's small and badly positioned when the lens is fully extended in the shooting position. Also, the build quality feels a bit cheap and plastic compared to my other Canon / Sigma lenses but only time will tell if it stands up to heavy use. Apart from that I'm loving it! It's a cracking lens. P.S, on the EOS R6 with it's excellent low light performance, the fixed F11 aperture is a non-issue. Just use Auto ISO with either TV or M mode to keep your shutter speed up.

Review: Has a restricted focus area due to focal length but I can only see me using it on bright sunny days. Value for money not sure but 800mm fixed at f11 comes without difficulty can’t see it out of the box except for bright Sunny days.
