Now, Creators Can Go From Traditional Stills or Video Shooting to Stereoscopic 3D Capture with a Simple Lens Swap
The pairing of the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens and the EOS R5 C brings high resolution video recording at up to 8K DCI 30p and 4K DCI 60p. With a beautifully engineered folded optical design, the dual high-performance L-series fisheye lens combine imagery onto a single image sensor delivering impressive results to a single file. This can help simplify your workflow by eliminating the need to sync and stitch multiple video files. An integral part of the EOS VR System, Canon's EOS VR Utility software can easily convert footage to your choice of editing software. For Adobe® Premiere Pro® users, the EOS VR Plug-in software can help streamline your editing process. Both paid subscription-based software solutions allow for convenient post-production. Creatives, industry professionals and newcomers to VR can create an immersive experience, capturing dynamic scenes for entertainment, tourism, training & education, real estate, storytelling or anywhere you want to bring your audience to.

VR With Ease
The VR Content Creator Kit provides the capability of delivering a single file -- creating a powerful and convenient solution compared to traditional VR systems which capture a 3D scene with two separate fisheye lenses, recording that imagery to two separate cameras or image sensors, which write two files. This can save the user time and effort behind the camera, and in post-production by helping to solve issues such as multi-camera positioning, multi-lens syncing, image stitching, audio syncing, encoding and more.

Camera Firmware
To help improve the user experience with the uniqueness of shooting with the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye lens, special features have been added to the firmware to optimize VR shooting. This firmware provides metadata information for the software to convert the image from fisheye to equirectangular. One of the features enabled with the use of this lens is a "Magic Window" on-screen overlay, accessed by tapping the [INFO] button that assists the creator in framing the central resting position which shows an approximate field of view in the composition.  The user can magnify at 6x and 15x magnification then also use MF Peaking while magnified (a first for Canon EOS cameras) and additionally can swap between the left and right lenses with a simple tap of the [INFO] button while magnified. This is incredibly useful when manually focusing the lens.

EOS VR Utility and EOS VR Plugin
Canon's subscription-based software solutions are an integral part of Canon's EOS VR System. Options include the EOS VR Utility or the EOS VR Plug-in for Adobe Premiere Pro, each providing a different workflow experience for VR creators and studios.  With either solution, conversion of the Dual Fisheye lens imagery to stereoscopic 3D 180° VR format in equirectangular imagery is possible, as well as the processing and exporting of the imagery at various resolutions and file formats so files can be viewed in compatible Head Mount Displays (such as the Meta Quest 2 or Pico G2) and other VR viewing platforms.

Convenient VR Workflow
Simplify your workflow by eliminating the need to sync and stitch multiple video files. Canon's EOS VR Utility software can easily convert footage from dual fisheye to an equirectangular file that can be exported in various file formats and resolutions. For Adobe users, the EOS VR Plug-in allows for equirectangular conversion to be done within the Adobe Premiere Pro application. Now, conversion, editing, and color grading can be done without leaving the Adobe ecosystem. Both paid subscription-based Canon software solutions allow for convenient post-production.

The Hybrid Camera for Photo and Video
Whether capturing stills or videos, you’ll love the fast and intuitive autofocus, excellent imaging, versatility of non-stop 8K/60P RAW recording, and fast motion recording without cropping the sensor – all in a compact and lightweight design built on the next generation RF Mount System.

Hybrid Photo & Video Capabilities
One flip of the switch and the EOS R5 C transforms from a world class stills camera to a fully-fledged Cinema Camera. Perfect for switching between photography and cinematography.

See All the Details With 8K Video and 45MP Stills
Enjoy full creative flexibility with high-resolution video and stills. We’re talking up to 8K/60P internal RAW or cinema RAW light recording, HDMI 8K RAW output to compatible recorders, and 8K HDR recording (PQ/HLG) for high-quality, lifelike images that are sure to impress. Canon's 45 Megapixel full-frame CMOS imaging sensor is at the heart of the EOS R5 C camera's superb image quality, providing impressive still-image continuous shooting at speeds of up to 20 frames per second, and with Dual Pixel CMOS AF II capability, to track split second movements of even the most elusive subjects.

Fits Comfortably in Your Hand
Perfect for agile crews or for use as a B-Cam, the EOS R5 C's internal cooling fan enables virtually limitless shooting in high-definition 8K/60P video. Its compact, lightweight, and ergonomic design makes handheld shooting a breeze, whether shooting video or still images.

RF L-Series Lens
Taking full advantage of the large diameter, short back focus distance of the mirrorless Canon RF mount, the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens has two identical, L-series fisheye lenses. Positioned with 60mm of spacing between Left and Right Lens centers, they provide an interpupillary distance closely resembling human vision with a natural parallax for a powerful, immersive experience that brings the viewer to feel they are within the scene where the video or still image takes place. In addition to all the strong stereoscopic 3D 180° VR benefits, this lens also features the high image quality you've come to expect from Canon's RF L series lenses.

L-Series Lens Elements
The RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens features 12 elements in 10 groups, highlighted by two UD (Ultra-low Dispersion glass) elements and prisms in both the Left and Right lenses giving impressive color, clarity, and minimal chromatic aberration to the image.

Manual Focusing
Coordinated manual focusing of both lenses allows you to focus each lens using the manual focus ring. If needed, the ability to adjust a Left-Right focus difference adjustment dial to refine focus of the right lens separately from the left lens is possible by using the included hexagon wrench.

Impressive Flare Control in Backlit Conditions from Use of Subwavelength Structure Coating (SWC)
Canon's SWC technology decreases ghosting and reflections that may occur, when shooting in more challenging lighting conditions such as during strong backlight, providing versatility and more uniform color balance in the scene.

Large Aperture of f/2.8 To a Deep Depth of Field of f/16
The RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens is designed with dual optical systems with coordinated electronically controlled apertures. These provide a highly adaptable aperture range — allowing you to go from a bright f/2.8 aperture in low light shooting, to a deep depth of field of f/16 for more control of your exposure in brighter environments. Additionally, a gelatin filter holder is located at the rear of the lens allowing optional gel filters to be used similarly to previous Ultra-wide angle Canon lens offerings.

Compact, Lightweight and Portable
Thanks to the RF mount and the folded optical design, the size and weight of this lens makes it easy to use — even when shooting in tight spaces — and easy to carry in a camera bag. The RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens weighs under a pound and is just slightly over 2 inches in depth from mount to the end of the front elements — creating an incredibly compact and lightweight solution.

Dust- and Water-Resistant Sealing with Fluorine Coating for Peace of Mind
Built to L series lens specifications, the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens features a highly durable RF mount design. With dust- and water-resistant sealing, you can be confident shooting almost anytime and anywhere, even in challenging weather conditions. In addition, fluorine coating is used on the front to help prevent water, oil, and other surface residue like fingerprints from sticking to the lens, which facilitates quick and easy wiping, without the use of solvents.
