The pinnacle in Canon's constant-aperture
telephoto zoom lenses, the 70-200mm f/2.8 L "IS" lens is an incredible
optic with robust design and tacksharp results. Second-generation Image
Stabilization responds in as little as 0.5 seconds, while providing
stabilization that is three times as handholdable as a normal lens. IS now
automatically deactivates when on a tripod to conserve battery power. An
entirely new optical formula produces images that are superior to even its
highly regarded predecessor, the 70-200mm f/2.8 L, despite having more
reflective surfaces within the lens.
Key Features
• Rubber O-ring can be combined with EOS 1V and
EF "II" teleconverters for near imperviousness to moisture exposure
• Two-stage Image Stabilization can correct for
all types of camera shake or just up/down shake (for use when panning with a
moving subject)
• Focus limiter switch
• Shorter minimum focusing distance and higher
maximum magnification than its 70-200mm f/2.8 L predecessor
