The Canon EF 70-200 mm f/2.8 L IS III USM is a zoom lens that is ideal for a variety of subjects, from portraiture to sports. It offers a consistently bright f/2.8 aperture that excels in low light and provides precise depth-of-field control to isolate subjects. Its optical design uses a fluorite element and five UD elements to suppress chromatic aberrations and color fringing. These elements ensure a high level of sharpness throughout the zoom range. The Canon EF 70-200 mm f/2.8 L IS III USM also offers a minimum focusing distance of 1.2 m and an eight-blade diaphragm for superb bokeh. An Air Sphere coating is also present to reduce reflections and ghosting for greater color fidelity and contrast.
Highlights of the Canon EF 70-200 mm f/2.8 L IS III USM lens
Creative possibilities
The lens' bright f/2.8 maximum aperture and eight-blade diaphragm make it easy to highlight subjects with superb bokeh.
Low-light photography
Its optical image stabilizer minimizes the appearance of camera shake at up to 3.5 stops of shutter speed. This enables optimum performance in low-light conditions and at slower shutter speeds. In addition to the standard one-shot IS mode, a second mode optimizes panning. By combining this stabilizer with its fast f/2.8 aperture, which lets in twice as much light as an f/4 lens, Canon ensures excellent capture of your subjects in difficult lighting conditions.
Outstanding image quality
Fluorite and UD glass optical elements guarantee high contrast and excellent resolution. Air Sphere coating eliminates glare and ghosting.
Designed to exacting standards
Protective gaskets keep out dust and moisture. Front and rear lenses are fluorite-coated for easy cleaning.
Fast, silent AF
The Canon EF 70-200 mm f/2.8 L IS III USM features a ring-shaped USM motor that focuses very quickly. Use the focus ring to make manual adjustments at any time.
