High performance telephoto zoom lens With a focal length range of 70-300mm, the EF 70-300mm f 4-5.6L IS USM is a compact & versatile telephoto zoom lens delivering exceptional image quality. Ideal for wildlife & sports photographers, as well as photo journalism & portraiture. L-series quality The L-series is Canon's flagship professional lens range, representing the best in precision-designed EF optics. L-series lenses combine superior performance with superlative handling, & are highly resistant to dust & moisture. 4-stop Image Stabilizer A 4-stop optical Image Stabilizer – specially designed for the lens’ specific focal length range – works to counteract image blur, which can occur during handheld shooting, or at slow shutter speeds. Automatic panning detection ensures effective performance when tracking moving subjects &, as the IS system is based in the lens, results are visible through the viewfinder during framing. Two UD elements Chromatic aberration is virtually eliminated by the inclusion of two UD lenses, ensuring optimum image quality & sharpness. Creative background blur An 8 blade circular aperture on the EF 70-300mm f 4-5.6L IS USM creates beautiful background blur, making your subject stand out with dramatic effect. Fast, quiet auto focus A ring USM (Ultrasonic motor) uses ultrasonic frequency vibrations to drive extremely rapid auto focus with near-silent operation. A high-speed CPU & optimised AF algorithms contribute further to AF speed. Good holding torque stops the focusing lens group without overshoot. Full time electronic manual focus override is available without having to switch out of AF mode. ...

EF 800mm F/5.6L IS USM Super Telephoto Lens

The EF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM incorporates Canon’s highest standard of precision optics. The L-series is Canon’s flagship lens range, combining outstanding image quality with exceptional operability. Dust and moisture seals offer advanced protection from the elements, even in harsh weather conditions. Canon’s 4-stop compensation Image Stabilizer technology allows the use of shutter speeds up to 4 times slower with no perceptible increase in image blur. Automatic panning detection turns off the Image Stabilizer in either the horizontal or vertical direction when following moving subjects. Tripod detection automatically improves the functionality of the Image Stabilizer when shooting on a tripod. For optimum visual performance, the lens incorporates four types of special optical
elements: aspherical elements to correct spherical aberrations, and refracting Fluorite, UD and Super UD (ultra-low dispersion) elements to eliminate secondary chromatic aberrations. The result is crisp, high contrast and undistorted image quality all the way to the edge of the frame. At just 4.5Kg, the EF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM is a relatively lightweight super-telephoto lens, suitable for limited hand-held shooting. Its magnesium alloy build keeps its weight comparable to shorter telephoto lenses. Canon’s ring USM auto focus system employs ultra-sonic frequency vibrations for fast, accurate and virtually silent operation with excellent positioning control. Full-time manual focus override, via a large ring that does not rotate during auto focus, allows photographers to begin
fine-tuning a shot instantly. Also included is focus preset, already found on the EF 300mm f/2.8L IS USM, which allows selection and storage of a specific focus position, for instant recall when required. Super Spectra coatings help ensure accurate colour balance and high contrast, and suppress flare and ghosting by absorbing light that might be reflected off internal lens elements and digital EOS sensors. A circular aperture delivers smooth, even-looking bokeh (background blur) – ideal for isolating subjects at large aperture.
