great lens at a reasonable price...

Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2023

Just received the lens. works fantastic. be aware that it does not come with the tripod ring. It is not implied or listed as an included part. I just thought it came with it because most photos of the lens have the ring and mount included. ah well, that's minor. Beautiful lens.

Lousy shipping

Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2022

$1400 lens shipped in a box with no protection other then the canon display box. Utterly unacceptable for a professional grade and price product. Also, why did this take so long to ship? Should I have bought it direct from a photo supply for the same price instead? lens itself is awesome as expected.

The 5 stop stabilization is excellent for really low light situations

Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2018

The lens is quick, silent and sharp. I upgraded to this lens from the first version of the Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 USM Lens that I bought in 2012. A new feature that I have really made use of on this lens is Mode 3 on the stabilizer mode options. Mode 3 turns on the stabilizer when the shutter is released, and is intended to be used for erratic movement. I photograph birds and insects a lot, and Mode 3 works especially well with hummingbirds that hover, but constantly move one way or the other to get just outside of the view of the lens, bats and flying insects. The 5 stop stabilization is excellent for really low light situations, and I find it works great for getting clear photos of nocturnal animals like bats, owls and porcupines in the low gray light at dusk that are too far away for a flash. This lens also has a closer minimum focus than it's predecessor. With the sharpness and clarity this lens offers I can often get macro like detail. The lens is very lightweight and durable, which makes it a great choice for travel.

Very Good Purchase

Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2021

When you step into the IS II USM Lens arena you are at the next level. This lens makes you look like a pro even if you aren't. I have taken pictures in the day and at night. It is well worth the money. When I first used it I was thinking I could have brought a regular lens and achieved the same results. Then I open the pictures up on my computer. I aimed at items 2 miles away because I have a regular EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM which is a good Telephoto Lens. But when I changed up and spent a little money on the EF 70-200mm f/4L IS II USM Lens it changed me and my title. This lens with a little work will definitely get you phone calls from the pictures it produce. As mention the items I took from 2 miles away were very clear and I could make out names and see window glass clearly. I zoomed in and I was very impressed. Took pictures of the same buildings at night with a high ISO and the buildings were very clear. Overall this is one of the best Lens on the market. If the others shoot better I can't wait to buy one.

Amazing portrait lens.

This is such a sharp and quality lens for portrait. I used to use f2.8 version but this one is lighter and sharper as well. You can get great images at lower shutter speed.

I love this lens on my BMPCC 4K with Metabones XL Speed booster. It effectively becomes an f 2.6 and it helps to keep the weight down compared to the same lens at f 2.8. The lens is super sharp and very flexible and it's range. Overall, this is a necessary lens and everyone's kit.

Super crisp pictures at the expense of zoom

Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2022

Verified Purchase

There is a big difference between the zoom factor of the 70-300 and this 70-200. But the picture clarity, reduced lens flare, and image stabilization for action shots is truly stunning. If you want to take your Canon SLR to the next level, this is the lens to do it!

Why not?

Super impressed. It doesn't come with the thingy in the picture. Who cares. The lens is quick, accurate and vibrant. I'm not a professional so I don't have all of the critical BS that comes with a camera lens. But trust me as an amateur, you will love what this lens will do for your crappy ability to take great photos. It's fool proof. Spend the money. It's pretty damn awesome.
