Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM
The Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM ($1,349 direct) isn't as lauded as the company's f/2.8 IS lens with the same zoom range, but it's priced about $650 less, making it an attractive option for shooters who can live with a slower lens.
Pros:
- Optical stabilization system
- Fixed aperture through zoom range
- Relatively light.
Cons:
- Edges soft when zoomed
- Adding a tripod collar is expensive

Replaces older s/n lens that was soft.
I bought this lens to replace an older version of the same lens and it is much sharper than the older one. I use this to photograph moving subjects and a fast running son on the track. I have had no issues with it so far.
Pros:
- Durable
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Rugged
- Strong Construction

Canon EF70-200mm f/4L IS USM Lens
it out both on several indoors shots under less-than-ideal lighting conditions and was pleased in most respects, and outdoors. very good results on even moving subjects. Really good product, with highly applauding performance. Image quality is simply awesome. 5 stars for that.
