The EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM features Compact lightweight body
- 760g, 172mm length 4 stop Image Stabilizer with 2 modes 1 x Fluorite & 2 x UD lens elements for superior optical performance Ring type USM auto focus with full time manual override Circular aperture diaphragm for even background blur Environmental seals for dust & moisture resistance Super Spectra coatings to suppress ghosting & flare 1.2m minimum focus distance Lens hood & soft pouch The EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM offers a lightweight alternative to the renowned EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM, complementing Canon’s other professional L-series lightweight zooms such as the EF 17-40 f/4L USM & EF 24-105L IS USM. f/4L lenses are designed for professional photographers requiring a light zoom lens with a fixed aperture throughout the zoom range. The lens adds Canon’s proven Image Stabilizer technology to the popular EF 70-200mm f/4L USM while maintaining that lens’ compact size. Image Stabilizer 4 step Image Stabilizer (IS) extends low light options to previously unimaginable levels. Photographers normally shooting handheld at 1/250 sec can switch on IS to obtain a similarly steady & blur-free result with a shutter speed of just 1/15 second. IS reduces dramatically the image blur caused by camera shake. Gyro sensors detect unwanted vibrations, triggering the corresponding movement of a correcting lens group perpendicular to the optical axis. This alters the light path, returning the image to its correct position on the sensor or film plane. For shooting immobile subjects, Mode 1 corrects for movement in the image along both the horizontal & vertical axes. For shooting while panning horizontally to follow a moving subject, Mode 2 turns off vertical correction & prevents the effect of dragging the subject back through the frame. IS switches off automatically when the camera is mounted on a tripod, thus preventing feedback loops between the IS sensor & internal motor vibrations. superb auto-focus The lens’ Ring-type USM employs ultra-sonic frequency vibrations to drive auto focus with unrivalled speed & near-silent operation. A powerful CPU & enhanced AF algorithm contribute to speed performance. Good holding torque stops the lens with precision & accuracy, the instant it arrives at the correct focus point & without overshoot. Photographers can switch to manual focus instantly & at any time simply by moving the manual focus ring without first having to switch out of auto focus mode. f/4 from 70 to 200mm The EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM offers the highest possible optical quality with no change in aperture over the full focal range of the lens. This allows photographers to set exposure at the widest aperture & zoom all the way through to 200mm without having to decrease shutter speed. Lens length does not alter during zooming & the front lens element does not rotate during zooming or focusing. The lens employs an almost perfectly circular barrel aperture, helping create attractive, even background blur. Image quality A newly designed optical system limits lens size & improves image clarity over the total image area. 1 x Fluorite element & 2 x Ultra-Low Dispersion glass elements are used to eliminate the secondary chromatic aberrations that otherwise reduce sharpness & introduce colour fringing. By optimising Super Spectra lens coatings & lens element shaping, Canon’s engineers have been effective in suppressing flare & ghosting – more prone to occur with digital cameras due to reflection off the image sensor. By increasing light absorption, coatings reduce reflections off lens element surfaces to deliver crisp, undistorted images with natural colour balance. EOS system integration The EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM

Includes:: distance metering information, providing compatibility with the E-TTL II flash system of late model cameras such as the EOS-1D Mark II, EOS-1 Ds Mark II, EOS 5D & EOS 400D. When used in conjunction with Canon’s range of EX Speedlite flash units, the lens passes distance information to the flash algorithm for markedly enhanced flash exposure metering. 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 & moisture. AF Mode & IS switches have been reshaped, making them less susceptible to being engaged or disengaged accidentally. The EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM comes with a lens hood & lens pouch. In keeping with Canon’s Kyosei philosophy of living in harmony with the environment, the lens features only lead-free glass.
