When it initially launched in April, the company shared details about its global launch, but made no mention of the US market, potentially because it was waiting to see how tariffs would shake out.
The lens will cost $219 on its own, and will also be available as part of a "Double Zoom Lens Kit" for the EOS R100, which will include the camera, the RF 75-300mm, the RF-S 18-45mm F4. 5-6. 3 and a camera bag for $799. Both will be available sometime this month.
While the lens is technically new, it's essentially the same as the 26-year-old EF 75-300mm F4. 0-5. 6 III, just with a new mount. That lens has never been renowned for its image quality, but it does offer a lot of reach at a very accessible price.
Speaking of price, it appears that US tariffs haven't made a huge impact on this lens; the EF version has been sold at $199 since well before the tariffs, and the RF version's higher price could just as easily be chalked up to the new housing as the cost to import it.
