The Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM is a
lightweight, compact L Series telephoto zoom lens with Image Stabilizer.
With all the optical brilliance of the larger f/2.8 aperture version, the
70-200mm f/4L is a zoom lens with great possibilities for portraiture and
travel. All of the features of the bigger lens are present here as well,
including ultra-low dispersion glass, internal focus and fulltime manual
focusing override.
The optical Image Stabilization in this
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.
Key Features
• Image Stabilizer
4 step Image Stabilizer (IS) extends low light options to previously
unavailable levels. Photographers normally shooting handheld at 1/250 sec
can switch on IS to obtain a similarly steady and blur-free result with a
shutter speed of just 1/15 second.
• 2 IS Modes:
Mode 1 corrects for movement in the image
along both the horizontal and vertical axes
Mode 2 turns off vertical correction and prevents the effect of dragging
the subject back through the frame
• 1 Fluorite and 2 UD lens elements for
superior optical performance
• Environmental seals for dust and
moisture resistance
• To match the weather resistance
afforded by EOS-1 pro camera bodies, an O-ring seals the lens against the
lens mount to prevent the ingress of dust and moisture
• AF Mode and IS switches have been
reshaped, making them less susceptible to being engaged or disengaged
accidentally
• Fully compatible with Canon tele-converters
