Product Description
Create 3D Content with Ease
With the growing popularity of virtual reality (VR) headsets, content creators
have more opportunities than ever to produce engaging 3D experiences. Canons
stereoscopic lens enables the creation of 3D content that delivers a greater
sense of depth and immersion compared to traditional 2D visuals. Capture
everyday moments, portraits, and unique perspectives with this innovative lens
without requiring a significant investment.
Efficient Optical Design
Canon builds on its experience with the RF-5.2mm F2.8 L DUAL FISHEYE lens by
introducing a straight-path optical system. This design reduces the number of
lenses required, making the lens lighter and more cost-effective while
maintaining image quality. Decades of lens design expertise have contributed to
this refined, accessible option for VR content creation.
Simplified VR Workflow
Using the RF-S7.8mm F4 STM DUAL lens with an EOS R7 camera (firmware 1.5.0+)
simplifies VR content creation. Unlike traditional setups that rely on multiple
cameras and lenses to record separate files, this solution captures a single
file. This integration streamlines processes like image stitching, lens
synchronization, and post-production, saving time and effort.
Expanding the EOS VR System
Canons EOS VR System supports a range of camera and lens combinations along
with specialized software. The EOS VR Utility and EOS VR Plug-in for Adobe
Premiere Pro are designed to optimize workflows for creators using the RF-S7.8mm
F4 STM DUAL lens. These tools enable outputs in various formats, such as 3D
180, 3D Theater, and Spatial video, offering flexibility for different
production needs.
Compatibility with VR Platforms
Canons software solutions expand the usability of VR content. The EOS VR
Utility and EOS VR Plug-in allow creators to process and export files in
multiple formats suitable for VR head-mounted displays, such as the Meta Quest
3. These tools make it easier to prepare VR content for viewing on different
platforms.
Designed for Immersive 3D Imaging
The RF-S7.8mm F4 STM DUAL lens is built to deliver stereoscopic 3D imagery. Its
dual lenses are positioned with an 11.8mm spacing to closely mimic human vision,
creating natural depth and parallax. The lenss 60 optical field of view allows
users to explore the scene through VR headsets, while the 144 field of view
provides flexibility in framing and reduces distortion.
Streamlined Autofocus
The lens features a dual-lens autofocus mechanism driven by a stepping motor
(STM), ensuring synchronized focusing. The electronic focusing/control ring
offers additional control for adjustments, making the lens straightforward to
operate for users familiar with RF lenses.
Adjustable Aperture for Versatile Use
The RF-S7.8mm F4 STM DUAL lens supports a wide aperture range, from f/4
for low-light settings to f/16 for bright conditions. Its 58mm front filter
thread adds versatility for various creative applications, ensuring adaptability
for different shooting environments.
