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.

This product is simply amazing..It has a huge difference compare to EF 70-300 and im not talking about the EF 75-300. It gives you a high image quality especially sharpness and versatility. The structure is stunning and I would recommend this to everyone. Source: From experience.

Great for shooting my son's flag football games!

Awesome Low Light Lens; Consistent Output; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Strong Construction

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.

Pros: Strong Construction, Nice Bokeh, Fast / accurate auto-focus, Durable, Lightweight Cons: Other thoughts: On time with overnight delivery and the IQ is amazing. Thank you guys.

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.

This Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L USM Lens has an amazing deal to be with. The quality of the lens is great.It also gives an amazing image quality. It also has auto focus features. The angles and adjustability is good.

Great all round lens to have at hand,great for wildlife and sport. Delivers a good quality print. Can become a little heavy on long sessions. Quality robust build as usual from Canon. A great tool to have in your arsenal !!

Easy To Use; Rugged; Great Resolution; Silent Operation

Heavy; Not Good In Low Light

a good lens but with limited usefullness, if you can afford it get the IS version

lightweight and good image quality

no IS and only f4 means it is quite limited in use
