The Canon ef 70 200mm f4 Reviews

- Very sharp throughout the range. Colour and contrast are also very good regardless of aperture. I shot a couple of sheep at distance on the local farm and then cropped close to 100% and the photo was still sharp. For a lens of this quality and build, covering this much focal length, it is light to carry. I also have the 85L and that makes this lens seem very light. - David, Maidstone

- Very fast autofocus. Sharp lens. Excellent colour reproduction. I was going to purchase the cheaper non IS version because I have steady hands but I have found, in day to day use, that the Image Stabilisation really works well - Martin, Southport
