EF 100–400mm f/4.5–5.6L IS II USM
The zoom lens for outstanding range, stability and mobility
The EF 100–400mm f/4.5–5.6L IS II USM lens delivers a superb combination
of cutting-edge performance, compact construction and brilliant resolving power
that’s great for sports and wildlife photography. The lens features one
fluorite and one super UD element to help provide impressive contrast and
resolution with reduced chromatic aberration across the entire zoom range.
Canon’s new Air Sphere Coating (ASC) helps significantly reduce backlit
flaring and ghosting, while fluorine coatings on the front and rear lens
surfaces help lessen smears and fingerprints. A 9-blade circular aperture
renders beautiful, soft backgrounds, and a 3 mode (standard, panning and
exposure only) Optical Image Stabilizer provides up to 4 steps of image
correction. The new inner focusing AF system helps ensure fast and accurate
focus down to 3.2 ft. with a .31× maximum magnification. Usability
enhancements include a rotation-type zoom ring with adjustable zoom torque for
more precise, customizable zoom performance, a redesigned tripod mount that can
be attached and detached without removing the lens from the camera, and an
all-new lens hood with a side window that makes it simple to adjust specialty
filters-like polarizers-without the need to remove the hood. Ruggedly
constructed with advanced dust and water sealing for durability in a range of
environments, the EF 100–400mm f/4.5–5.6L IS II USM lens is a stellar
performer with refined controls for a wide variety of situations.
Features
Superb Optical Performance
Through use of one Fluorite lens and one Super UD, reduced chromatic aberration
and high image quality of an L-series lens is achieved across the entire
zoom range.
Dramatically improved image Stabilization
New IS unit achieves shutter speeds four steps slower enabling sharper images
whilst shooting handheld.
New Rotation Type Zoom Ring
Replacing previous linear type zoom construction, the new rotation type zoom
ring enables improved handling for minute adjustments and excellent balance
throughout the zoom range.
Dust and Drip Resistant Construction
Vastly improved weather sealing prevents water and dust from getting inside the
lens enabling usage in harsh conditions.
