Overall, the f/4 lens clearly plays second fiddle on paper but it is a very easy lens to carry and to use. Though it is expensive it is only roughly half that of the f/2.8 version, based on Canons SRPs.

We take a closer look at the Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM and see if it can compete with its f/2.8 sibling

This lens is absolute must have. The major downside to the f/2.8 is that it is twice the weight. This lens can be taken out for long periods without any pain. This lens in not an inside lens especially at f/4 but outside its extremely sharp and produces excellent colour. THIS LENS IS A MUST HAVE!

I was so undecided between the F4 IS and the f2.8 IS (MKI) that I bought both to compare side by side. For me the F4 IS was the clear winner. All images I tested were just as sharp if not sharper than the f2.8 IS. The lens is light and the AF is blistering fast.

Some years ago I bought the 70-200L 2.8MkII lens and found it to be an amazing lens, but the one thing about it was that it is a bit of a howtzer. I loved using it but the weight broke the cardinal rule that the best lens is the one you are carrying.

The Canon EF 70-200mm f4.0 L USM Lens has to be one of the greatest budget lens you can buy, its so sharp you can cut yourself on the images, every photographer should make this one of their first upgrade in the lens department, the focus ring is smooth to use and the same with the zoom.

The compact RF 70-200mm with f4 and image stabilizer is an expensive but razor-sharp zoom for Canon full-frame cameras.

Small and light, very sharp at all focal lengths, fast autofocus and excellent image stabilization, Weatherproof.

Expensive, can not use stand mount or teleconverter.

While it's a shame that picture and sound quality haven't been upgraded, the iPhone 13 was great in these regards and the iPhone 14 is, too Excellent display Admirable headphone performance Solid build quality No upgrades to picture or sound Familiar design Notch is still present

Apple's latest non-Pro iPhone is superb - it's just that it's strikingly similar to last year's effort.

Still an incredible smartphone, Brilliant battery life gets a bit better, Excellent camera system gets a bit better

Last year’s Pro hardware, Wireless charging slow by modern standards, No USB-C; it’s now well overdue

A major upgrade of Canon’s popular 70-200mm f/4 IS lens, the new Mark II remains relatively compact and lightweight, but packs a heavyweight punch in terms of performance.

Stellar sharpness and contrast, Super-fast autofocus system, 3-mode, 5-stop stabilizer

As pricey as Tamron’s f/2.8 lens, Optional tripod mount ring is expensive
