Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM Lens
Product Description:
Successor to the popular EF70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM, this versatile telephoto zoom lens incorporates the Nano USM technology for highly precise, swift, and silent AF. The reduced minimal focal distance from 1.5m to 1.2m enables users to easily adapt to a range of challenging environments. With an IS performance equivalent to 4 shutter speed stops, up from the previous 2.5 stops, the EF70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM is able to ensure sharpness of images when shooting at a longer focal length. In addition, the Lens Information Display with a mode switch button to toggle between displays allows users to be better-informed to take better quality images.
Key Features:
- Telephoto zoom designed for full-frame Canon EF-mount DSLRs, this lens is also suitable for use with APS-C models where it provides a 112-480mm equivalent focal length range.
- One UD element is featured in the optical design to noticeably reduce chromatic aberrations and color fringing for increased clarity and improved color fidelity.
- Lens Information Display on the top of the lens barrel clearly highlights focusing distance, focal length, and Image Stabilizer amount.
- NANO USM system utilizes both a ring type USM and an STM mechanism to realize quick and accurate focusing that is also smooth and near-silent to suit both photography and video applications. This focusing system also affords full-time manual focus control when working in the one-shot AF mode.
- An Image Stabilizer compensates for up to four stops of camera shake for sharper handheld shooting when working in difficult lighting conditions and with slower shutter speeds.
- A circular nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when working with selective focus and shallow depth of field techniques.
