Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The Canon USA 7042A002 70mm to 200mm /f2.8 IS USM is an exceptional zoom lens for use with a Canon SLR camera body (35mm or Digital). A unique feature is that this lens incorporates Canon's second generation Image Stabilization technology. Maximum Diameter x Length, Weight - 3.4 x 7.8, 3.24 pounds

Amazon.com Product Description:
Incorporating Canon's second-generation Image Stabilization technology, this 70-200mm telephoto zoom responds in as little as 0.5 seconds while providing up to three stops of correction for camera shake. As a result, you can easily capture the far-off action of fast-paced sports or zoom in for an intimate portrait with a blurred background. The lens's autofocus (AF) system, meanwhile, has been refined for better response time and tracking speed. And photographers will love the new eight-blade circular aperture, which offers a more pleasing out-of-focus image. Constructed to pro standards, the EF 70-200mm lens is highly dust- and moisture-resistant and carries a one-year warranty.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM lens
What can I say that hasn't already been said about this lens? Absolutely wonderful. Fast accurate focusing for sports. Tremendously wide aperture. Crisp images. Great bokeh. Expensive, but well worth it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Caon 70-200 IS
Pros Best lens I have bought yet.
Cons Heavy and Price

I can not have not say enough good things about this lens. I use it for sports and outdoor shots. Well worth the money



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Exceptional Lens
This is one of the most versatile high quality lenses around. For the hobbyist, this will suffice as your number one lens for portraits and medium distance telephoto shots. It's a fast lens with exceptional quality glass.
This lens, along with the EF 14-35mm f/2.8L USM and the EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM is all a serious hobbyist-photographer needs as basic gear. Ok, it's expensive; but so is quality. If you're a designer and not a pure photographer, then don't waste money on high quality glass. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Simply one of the best
What else can I say that has already not been said. I am should have not purchased a couple of consumer lenses and went straight for the gusto. It might be a bit heavy, but this lens is the greatest.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My favorite for shooting action
I shoot a lot of horse events (dressage, jumping, etc.) and this lens has rapidly become my favorite, both for range and speed. Stops action with crisp detail and beautiful color. Somewhat heavy, but pretty much ANY lens in this category is going to give your arms a workout. I use a monopod for more stability.
