EF 300mm f/2.8L IS USM

EF 300mm f/4L IS USM

Image Stabilization adds to what’s already a legendary professional lens. The 300mm f/2.8L IS lens focuses closer (down to 8.2 feet/2.5m), offers the world’s fastest autofocus when used with EOS bodies having 45-point AF, is gasketed and sealed against dust and moisture, and has a lightweight magnesium alloy barrel and tripod collar. Its image quality, aided by both Fluorite and UD-glass, is stellar, and its advanced IS even works on a rock- steady tripod — as well as on a monopod or when hand-held.

Excellent optics and superb handling in a compact package with Image Stabilization. The IS allows safe hand- holding at shutter speeds up to two stops slower than otherwise possible — making it even more useful in low-light levels. It’s less than half the weight of the 300mm f/2.8L IS, and it focuses to an incredibly close 4.9 ft/1.5m, filling the frame with a subject the size of a postcard. Like all of Canon’s fixed focal length L-series lenses above 135mm, it’s compatible with Canon’s EF Extenders 1.4x II and 2x II.
