I'm not a Canon shooter, and there is a 0% chance I'll ever own this lens, but it's hard not to applaud the innovation here. Great job Canon!
I am a canon shooter, already invested in RF L lenses and yeah. 0% of me getting this. Definitely interesting product though.
What’s funny is this is actually building off a solution to making 3D images back in the film era. The Leica Stereo, as well as a few other stereo image adapters and prisms made in the 40’s and 50’s. The big difference here, is the field of view is much much wider thanks to the fisheye optics. But it’s definitely an interesting evolution of an older concept.
Canon user, L lens investor. 0% chance of getting this cause stereo imagery just isn’t a thing. Every few years the tech developers try and wow us all with stereo TVs and stereo cameras and stereo content. And it always falls on its ass and fades into obscurity again because nobody wants to wear the devices you need to appreciate the rather subtle difference it makes.

Amazing! Makes shooting VR 180 soooooo much easier. I can't wait to test one of these out
😍

will you upload a VR 180 video or vlog?!
Canon's RF lineup gets more interesting day by day!
As a VR content creator & VR specialist as well as a Canon Shooter all my life, this is the best Christmas 🎄 gift ever
Woww great job canon! This is unique
My phone did this 10 years ago en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_Evo_3D
Canon just broke the internet with this lenses, this is different and I love it
This is revolutionary. Can't wait for the release!
I didn't know I needed this until now...
SAME HERE
right 🤣🤣🤣
😆
Love innovations like these that bring the next generation closer and closer.
This is a surprise. I'm not sure how this will work in my type of work, but I want it already.
OMG didn't see that one coming...simply amazing!
*_Капец... Впервые вижу стекло с двумя стёклами... Да ещё и с фокусным 5.2... Браво !_*
Cant wait to see someone pair this up with the new Red V-Raptor camera. 8k vr 120fps here we go!
Anyone else remember the Canon 3D lens for the Canon XL1/2 from 2000-2002? This reminds me of that. Definitely ahead of its time.
Not the target customer of this, but boy! Thumbs up for the innovation! You guys rock. Love my Canon gear …
Impressive and curious how this lens splits dual world views across a single sensor. Cool!
Watch the video. It's fisheye, so the resulting images are circular and side-by-side on the sensor. It's a bummer for 3-D photography.
Oh man this lens is what I've been waiting for - on my favorite camera series no less! I really wish I knew this was coming. "I'm never going to shoot in 8K" was the thought I had when I got the R6. THIS would be the only reason I'd shoot in 8K! Please support VR on the R6 too. It'll give me time to upgrade.
@Plushies TV if you turn off the EVF and the LCD you can run the R5 in 8k and 4k HQ indefinitely without overheating (beyond 2 hours). Unsure if you can do this with the phone wireless monitoring app but this method works with an external monitor such as the atmos ninja V or V+. I agree that its unfortunate that the overheating is constraining and not ideal for professional shoots where continuous shooting for hours is expected. The fact that the 4k60p mode is line skipped and 4k120p is probably even less sharp is disappointing as well, thankfully 4kHQ24p and 8k30p are super sharp and not compromised and thus make for a great value proposition for those wiling and able to deal with the hoops needed to make use of the body. Hopefully the next generation or two of R5 successors (R5 II and R5 III) can have 24, 30, 60 and 120 HQ, not line skipped and avoid overheating without unconventional workarounds.
I just realized that 8k at the maximum the R5 does is 30fps is WAY too choppy for VR. 4kHQ60 or 8k needs to be added in firmware if this is going to be viable. 30fps for vr makes people sick. I don't know how likely it is that they'll do that but, its likely that the lens will be most useful on next generation bodies since we do not currently have HQ frame rates above 30 for the R5.
@Plushies TV Citizenflaba is correct in that the heating issues are absent when using the Atmos Ninja V or V+ because all the video is pushed out to the external recorder via the HDMI port and the EVF/LCD are turned off. It's the EVF and LCD screen that's causing the overheating issue. Also note the Atmos Ninja V+ will save you money in storage cards as they are cheaper than the CFexpress cards that are used internally in the R5.
@Plushies TV just pay $400 and get the camera modifed with copper heat sink
And have a legitimate HDMI connector so you can rig the camera properly for video.
that is some innovation, simply amazing !!!!
It is not an innovation, beam splitter attachments were invented more than 100 years ago.
At first I thought I wouldn't have a use for this lens, but thought it was really cool...the more I think about it, this could be an incredible asset for real estate space..
That was my initial use case thought for it.
Absolutely. The applications are boundless.
Some amazing astrophotography time-lapses are going to come from this!
Awesome lens. Awesome camera. I wonder how hard it was to make it f/2.8. Nice job Canon.
I wish I could afford R5 and that even more awesome thing...
Love how Canon always not only cares about quality and innovations, but also doesn't forget about creativity.
Canon's the best.
Mate theres not much innovation here, been around for a while. They just pushed it to the consumer market first lol
Is there a path to capturing footage on this and showing on a 3D projector via 3D BluRay player or other?
This is super cool, way to go Canon!
With the Apple Vision Pro release, this lens is now on my radar. Will there be a plugin release for Final Cut Pro?
This is wild! Much respect, even if I don't do a lot of video myself.
I can't wait to play with this in 15 years.
Simply AMAZING.🌷
You should make also stereo lens with two anamorphic lenses, for use camera sensor space more effective.
Is it possible to redirect the left and right source so they share the same path?
This way by using liquid crystal shutters we could use the full surface of the sensor for each image.
Just wondering, if R5 is the main and 8k 30. Will it be possible to update firmware to add in 6k 60 fps?
Wow, amazing engineering work there and I also love your camera stand what make is it?
Pretty cool. I don't see myself needing this at the moment but perhaps it's just a matter of time before my clients start asking for VR content.
Will there be a Final Cut Pro version of the plugin?
The first feature i would put in, is how you can navigae smoothly from one point to another in the image
Really innovative product. I'm curious if there will be a C-log2 update for the R5?
Fascinating--can't help but be intrigued by this unique lens. From an operational standpoint, however, those dual protruding fisheyes look awfully prone to damage. Not sure how to protect them, tho.
I was not expecting that :O I've never seen something like that before :O
@CanonUSA Will the Canon C70 support the lens in the future?
The future 😮
MIND BLOWN 🤯
Great innovation, will see use of this in VFX for sure
As a first time can using I will 100% get this lens just because I’m trying to get a different look than everybody else
New lens on my shopping list!
Who made the tripod head the camera is sitting on? That thing looks fantastic as well.
I wonder how open are the live view functions. Could you potentially livestream directly to VR using local WiFi and with minimal latency?
I’d love to do a live stream from in the air
If both image circles are 4096px in diameter, then how did you arrive at "8K"?
There's a chance those are typos and at 1:16 you wanted to say "4K 30p or "2K 60p"
That is beautiful...I keep wondering as to when I will have ownership of a camera. But I will patiently wait for such a blessing in one of the days.
We would love to test this out. We have the perfect use cases.
using the Premiere plug in, but it doesn't automatically make the footages from atomos (filmed using Canon R5) go to equirectangular, would your team make an update to the plugin and allow us to work with those footages?
This looks amazing for property clients.
I hope you will add this to the R6
Doesn't stop them from taking iPhone pictures and seeing the value in proper Real Estate photos though
i will try it :D i love vr and now i can creat movies for this
Room Toure in VR, imagefilm, in VR travel in VR, im so Hyped. No Limits
I AM SO glad I stayed with you Canon... my r5 is ready!
saviour of VR180 right here!
There are an adaptador for I can use it on my Sony A7SIII?
Hi, I would love to know what your tripod set up is. Thank you
interesting - so this can be used for 360 videos? If we make a rig and place 3 cameras and use 3 vr lenses we would be able to shoot 3D 360 videos in 8k ??
Make it possible. 😍
I now this lens and only this lens. I do sports, portrait, street photography, landscape and product. This lens is a do all work horse.
Interesting, i think this may not be an immediate hit, but it will get popular over time as it will be great for real-estate and capturing a view to capture crowds, like weddings, etc.
It also offers a new look.
My exact thoughts. This lense will be more expensive in the future.
I want to see the finished images after shooting with this dual lens
I don’t even know what I’m gonna use it for. But I wannnnnnt it!!!
Ohh man so much great technology. I wish they make one for Nikon. Amazing stuff Canon 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
As a hyper lapse stereoscopic shooter using the a1 am willing to make the jump to r5 for this lens alone 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
what’s ur set up like?
Will this lens work on the R3?

Now this is the beginning of the future.. ❤️
Wow! This is creative! Canon is definitely leading the pack these days!
Except when they put Micro-HDMI video outputs on their high-end cameras, effectively rendering them an unprofessional joke.
Goes to show you how great human vision is.
I expect this to be an excellent product as usual for Cannon.
Will this lens work with the canon c70???
My Dream, congrats Canon !!!!! Nice !!!
I had to check the calendar to see if it was April 1st again lol
Looks cool guys!
Hello, can you give me the reference of the stand used ? head ball ? thanks
Seems amazing , i have an experience with canon 8-15mm Fish eye lense.
Any plans for a non-VR version? I would love to see a similar product for projecting a more general purpose focal length onto a sensor. Perhaps you could use 2x anamorphic elements to capture two side-by-side 4k images onto one sensor.
Amen. The fisheye ruins it for 3-D photography.
I see you have it pushed out on the arm so you don’t capture the tripod legs. Does this mean it will not be practical for use with a gimbal?
Thinking the same way
This is a good question. The tripod legs would usually extend beyond the front of the lens when the lens is pointed toward the horizon, thus requiring the extension. I would think that most gimbals that keep their mechanics behind the plane of the lens should be safe. But it would be good for Canon to explicitly address it.
whats the real advantages have, while available ultra wide angel lens.
Hi, Apnar! Check out the new RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens in action at canon.us/frontrow8k to see what it can do!
Imagine the possibilities for indie VR films!
Thanks for your videos. Could you help me with this one :
Canon ef 50 mm f/1.4 usm vs canon ef 85 mm f/1.8 usm (in my range of budget)?
Which one do you recommend for pictures of people dancing or any occasion indoor in a low light conditions?
Hy Maykel!
These are good options. You will want to consider your subjects. The 85mm will have a tighter angle of view. While good for individual portraits and close-ups it may not be convenient for group photos or environmental images.
You can ask our camera support agents for more details. They can be reached at 1-800-652-2666 Monday-Friday: 9:00 am to 9:00 pm ET, Saturday: 9:00 am to 7:00 pm ET, excluding holidays.
We hope this helps.
Wow what an innovation ❤️
So where do you upload footage made from this in order to interact with it? Can anyone put on an oculus headset and watch a VR video on TH-cam?
Also for those not using headsets, are you able to move your phone around as if it were 360° video? I’m trying to figure out the utility of this
Hi Ryan!
After processing you can upload VR180 movies to platforms such as TH-cam. The greatest immersive effect is experienced when using an approved VR headset. Using a tablet, smartphone or monitor can allow for a 2D experience that will allow scrolling around the VR image with a pointer or by turning your smart device left, right, up or down. You can view a sample VR 180 video at the link here: th-cam.com/video/5GBpYANzvgE/w-d-xo.html
You will find more information and answers you your other questions in the EOS VR SYSTEM FAQ section of our website here: canon.us/3cke0QA
We hope this helps.
Pushing the boundaries..... Good one.
Wow finally we get some creative lens.
VR are coming to the people, lol imagine all the wedding and events that you could feel that you are there in that time and place
My canon now gets 👀!
Also can we get a RF T/S and a RF pancake pretty please
How can we use this camera and live streaming?
I hope it will also work with the R3 and R6, even if the resolution is lower there.
Hi! You'll need an EOS R5 to use the new RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens. Hope this helps!
8k actually makes sense for vr
Final innovation... this is wilddddd
Question: how can I watch this in my Quest 2 to see the stereoscopic effects?
you cant watch this specific video in 3d..but you will find plenty of VR 180° videos on TH-camVR or Oculus TV App which were shot with other VR cameras. i hope Canon can show some sample videos soon.
I couldn't focus on the lens as I really wanted to know who manufacturers that tripod with arm. I have a cheap knockoff that flexes a bit too much.
Impressive! I wish it was compatible canon 90D
Cool lens, I have no use for it, but I want one 😁😁😁
Amazing BUT Canon could you please also release the 8-15mm RF lens as well !!
How can it be that such a large company of photography has found a video that is not really high quality to say the least
RF killing it
Was any of this shot on the lens? Where? Possible for you to have a dedicated video for its application of the footage?
Hi, Jeff! Check out the new RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens in action at canon.us/frontrow8k
Hope this helps!
Can this lens be used with other cameras with mounts and achieve the same final 180 result with the fish eye dual merge software?
Hello Ozprana:
This lens is intended to be used with an EOS R5 camera that has firmware 1.5.0 or higher and utilize the Canon EOS VR Software solutions.
We hope this helps.
Is this good option to shoot a 3D feature film for theaters when shot at 8K and resolution brought down to 2K for theater?
Hi, San! It sounds like you've got a good idea. You may be able to limit the field of view in post production. Keep in mind, however, that this lens's focal length is fixed at 5.2mm, so you would have to find other solutions if you wish to get a shot at a different focal length.
Hope this helps!
