Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM 35mm Zoom
Product DescriptionThe EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM is a lightweight, compact L Series telephoto zoom lens with Image Stabilizer. The optical Image Stabilization in the new EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM lens provides up to an incredible four stops of shake correction-a first for Canon IS lenses. The use of fluorite UD lens elements provides excellent optical performance in terms of resolution and contrast. These features, together with its water-and dust-proof construction, provide both the performance and portability to meet user demands.

a Intermediate Date Reviewed: October 18, 2009 Strengths: Light and small 70-200 with an incredible good IS. Great quality and extraordinary results. Canon is the best at telezooms! Very versatile in comparison with primes. Balances nice on my 5D, much better then the F2.8 IS wich need an EOS1 or maybe an batterygrip. Weaknesses: IS makes some noise, does not sound very nice. Bokeh not so beautiful as some primes. I rather have a black lens, white attracts attention.

a Intermediate Date Reviewed: March 20, 2007 Strengths: This is probably one of the best lenses Canon ever made. I've bought it by trading in a cheap Canon EF 75-300 USM. I enjoy using this lens every minute. It dot a whole lot of strong points: - Excellent build quality: fully metal construction, dust sealed. - Very fast AF (uses ring USM motor, of course:-)) Previous lens that I had (EF 75-300) had a very slow AF. Also non-rotating front element (haven't used polarizer with it yet, though....) This lens can be definitely used to shoot action. - Outstanding stabilizer. It was possible to shoot this lens with exposures 1/20- 1/30 sec at the focal lenght of 200 mm. - Quite compact size and light weight. This lens is just slightly larger than EF75-300 but is a whole different league! - Excellent optical quality. I was even able to shoot some pictures of football with this lens! On 1.6 crop DSLR this beauty becomes 116-320mm equivalent focal length- very useful, indeed for DSLR! Highly recommended as an all-around travel telephoto zoom. Very enjoyable lens for handheld shooting in available light. Weaknesses: Pricey, but worth it. Focal length too short to shoot football(European, aka soccer, of course :-))) Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2-5 years Price Paid: $1300.00 Purchased At: www.camerashop.co.il Similar Products Used: Canon EF 75-300 USM (non-IS) Type of photography: People
