What Digital Camera founds out if this Canon f/4 lens is better designed than the flagship 70-200mm f/2.8L lens.

This was the first lens and my 1st L lens. Only having the 18-55 kit lens before, really showed up how bad that lens was. AF is fast and almost silent. Images are sharp throughout the focal length and bokeh is impressive.

Sharp; good IQ; fast focus....and it's white :

It makes your kit lens look silly

I have owned this lens for a long time. I purchased it because of its versatility, it give very sharp images, it's not to heavy, and built like a tank. It's an excellent alternative to the more expensive ones like the I.S. and the 2.8 version. It's also lighter.

I got the new lens and immediately went out and did 2 photo shoots in 1 day. I didn't know I was such a great photographer (tee hee). All jokes aside this is my first L series lens and it was such a joy to use it. The lens caught focus quickly and the photos came out fabulous.

ola, simplesmente fantastica...e minha lente favorita,eu adoro essa lente resolução de imagem impecavel ela e tudo oque se espera de uma lente L da canon...estou apaixonado por essa lente.

There are many uses for the Canon EF 70-200mm f/4.0 L USM Lens, but portrait photography is one of the best. Outstanding image quality.The most dazzling lens in my bag.

Poor in Low Light

The Canon EF70-200mm f4L IS USM Telephoto Zoom Lens is a great and versatile lens for landscape and wildlife photography. It is very very sharp with dynamic color. It is not too heavy and is very portable. The focus is just excellent.

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.

I bought this very lens about 2 years ago. I love it. The pictures I take with this lens looks like a professional has taken them.The telephoto lens is a must have for taken outside pictures.

I have had two of the 70 - 200 2.8 IS lenses and have always been disappointed with the amount of time it took to engage the IS. The IS lens would fish around when in that mode and so I usually had it turned off and used a shorter shutter speed for preference in getting a crisper image.
