Comments | Baby brother to the 70-200/2.8L IS (II) USM. Smaller, lighter, cheaper and just as sharp (though a stop slower). The optical design is somewhat different from the non-IS version (4 extra elements) and includes 1 Fluorite and 2 UD elements. A very good lens, made even more useful by its ability to take the Canon 1.4x and 2x TCs. AF is maintained on all DSLRs with the 1.4x, but only the 1D series bodies can AF (using the center AF zone) with the 2x. IS is also maintained when TCs are used. |
