365Telugu.com online news, India, November 7th,2024:Canon has unveiled the RF-S 7.8mm F4 STM Dual lens, the latest addition to its EOS VR System, designed to capture high-quality, immersive 3D images and videos. When viewed on devices like the Apple Vision Pro, these visuals appear so realistic that they bring subjects to life, enhancing the viewer’s sense of presence and immersion.
A New Level of Realism in 3D Imaging
The RF-S 7.8mm F4 STM Dual lens, compatible with Canon’s EOS R7 camera, introduces a unique mode of 3D visual capture distinct from its sibling, the RF-S 3.9mm F3.5 STM Dual Fisheye. Unlike Canon’s previous dual fisheye lenses that provide 180° VR imagery, this lens offers a narrower field of view, designed to create realistic, lifelike 3D stills and videos. Paired with Canon’s high-resolution EOS R system, the lens delivers detailed spatial images, making it feel as though subjects are directly in front of the viewer.
Compact Design with Full-Frame Versatility
Weighing just 131g and measuring a compact 41.5mm in length, the RF-S 7.8mm F4 STM Dual is as easy to carry as Canon’s compact RF50mm “nifty fifty” lens. Its dual-lens setup captures a 63° angle of view—akin to the popular 35mm lens on full-frame cameras—enabling users to easily frame everyday scenes, even from a close shooting distance of 15cm.
Effortless Capture and Easy Export
Using this lens is as simple as it is innovative. Each dual lens records parallax images directly onto the EOS R7’s image sensor. For post-processing, Canon’s EOS VR Utility software or Adobe Premiere Pro’s EOS VR plugin allow users to convert, edit, and output their images in various formats. Supported output formats include the MV-HEVC Spatial Video for Apple Vision Pro, VR 180°, and a 3D SBS (Side-by-Side) format compatible with VR glasses.
Ideal for All Lighting Conditions
The RF-S 7.8mm F4 STM Dual lens is optimized for video shooting, even in bright daylight, with an attachable 58mm circular ND filter to maintain exposure without sacrificing frame rates or aperture settings. When combined with the EOS R7, the setup weighs approximately 743g, making it highly portable and suitable for both professionals and enthusiasts interested in creating lifelike VR experiences.
With the launch of the RF-S 7.8mm F4 STM Dual, Canon continues to push the boundaries of spatial imaging, bringing the world of immersive 3D photography and videography closer to enthusiasts and professionals alike.
