EF 70–300mm f/4–5.6L IS USM
The perfect complementary telephoto lens for your kit
Designed to deliver ultra-high quality images along with lightning fast
operation, the new Canon EF 70–300 f/4–5.6L IS USM telephoto zoom lens
brings a favourite zoom range to the celebrated Canon L-series of lenses. It
features two Ultra Low Dispersion (UD) elements for improved image quality and
reduced chromatic aberration, incorporates a floating focusing mechanism for
sharpness from close up to infinity, plus an IS system that increases usability
by approximately four stops. The Image Stabilization system also features a
function that allows it to continue to operate, even when used on a rigid
tripod. An optional Canon Tripod Mount C (W II) is available as an accessory,
for balanced mounting on a tripod or monopod. Gleaming white on its exterior,
the lens is dust- and water-resistant, and now also features a newly-developed
Fluorine coating that resists smears and fingerprints, and significantly eases
lens cleaning. For any serious and critical EOS user, this new L-series lens
represents an excellent – and portable – solution to versatile telephoto
lens shooting.
