Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM Lens Review
Take one of Canon's most popular lenses, the Canon 70-200mm f/4 L , add an up-to-4-stop Image Stabilizer and you get the Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM Lens. If you don't need the subject-action-stopping and background-blurring capabilities of the faster Canon EF 70-200 f/2.8L IS Lens , this lens...

very nice
The lens focuses very fast with almost no noise. The IS function is a nice touch, but I am not sure how practical it really is. Having upgraded from an entry level lens, this lens is much heavier. Images are sharp with great color.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Easily Interchangeable
- Easy To Clean
- Sharp Focus
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Slightly Heavy

Canon EF 70-200/4L IS USM and EF 50/1.2L USM
The EF50/1.2L is a totally new optical design (there was an old FD 50/1.2L) and uses a molded aspheric rear element (the 50/1.0L used two very expensive ground and polished aspherics). It has a true ring type USM motor and a high speed CPU for fast focus.

- Fast to focus

Quite simply an excellent lens. As sharp as primes in its telephoto range, great contrast and colour, and state of the art IS. What it gives up in maximum aperture to the f2.8 version can be forgiven considering it's half the weight and 2/3 the cost.

My first L lens
This was my first significant lens purchase, and it hasn't disappointed. I have a Rebel Xsi, and without the battery grip, this lens would seem a bit large on that body, but otherwise it does a phenomenal job! After much research, I decided to start with this lens to add reach to the kit lens.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Easily Interchangeable
- Quick Focus
- Rugged
- Sharp Focus
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Heavy
