Canon just dropped a new wide-angle power zoom lens, the RF-S 14-30mm f/4-6.3 IS STM PZ, built to pair perfectly with the EOS R50 V, their latest camera aimed at video creators. It’s lightweight (181g), compact, and super versatile, covering a 22-48mm equivalent focal range, which makes it great for vlogging, live streaming, and cinematic video.

The big deal? Power zoom. Instead of manually adjusting zoom like a regular lens, this one lets you control zoom speed electronically with 15 different settings, so you can get smooth, precise zooms—especially handy for gimbal work. Plus, since it’s a fixed-length zoom, the lens doesn’t extend or retract when you zoom, which helps keep your setup balanced.

You also get image stabilization, fast Nano USM autofocus, and a seven-blade aperture for smooth backgrounds. It’s not weather-sealed and has a plastic mount, so it’s not built like Canon’s high-end L-series, but for $329.99, it’s a solid, budget-friendly option.
