Overview
Canon EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6 L IS II USM Lens The Canon EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6 L IS Mark II USM lens builds upon the success of the popular mark I, with a redesigned optical system for superb sharpness, a three-mode Image Stabiliser that allows shutter speeds up to 4 stops slower than normal and an improved minimum focusing distance of 3.2 feet (compared to 6.5 ft). The lens’ versatile focal range combined with its compact and lightweight build gives users the freedom to shoot handheld, which is particularly useful in confined spaces and when speed is of the essence. This solid, super-telephoto lens with rotating zoom design is ideal for a wide range of applications, including sport, portraiture, wildlife, pet and travel photography. The Key Features: Versatile super-telephoto zoom ideal for sport and wildlife Traditional rotating zoom design (compared to push-pull on previous model) New Optical Image Stabiliser provides up to 4-stop benefit, including three IS operation modes New Zoom Touch Adjustment ring - customise the feel of the zoom control for different situations New multi-layered Air Sphere Coating (ASC) helps to significantly reduce backlit flaring and ghosting High quality optics - superb image quality right across the frame Improved minimum focusing distance of 3.2 ft (compared to 6.5 ft) Weather sealed against dust and moisture, for use under harsh conditions Focus quickly, accurately and in near silence. Full-time manual focus override allows precise fine adjustment Ring USM drive, high-speed CPU and optimised AF algorithms to provide quiet and fast auto focus A Fluorine coating on lens surfaces reduces dirt clinging to the lens elements and prevents smearing New bayonet-style ET-83D hood with side window permits filters to be adjusted easily 0.31x magnification distance Who is it for? The EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM is a compact yet powerful telephoto zoom ideal for covering wildlife, sport and action in even the most challenging environments. Featuring advanced optical engineering, a new 4-stop Image Stabiliser and excellent weather-sealing, it offers stunning image quality in a body that has been designed with ease-of-use in mind. When used on cameras featuring APS-C sized sensors, the EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM offers angles of view equivalent to a 160-640mm on a full-frame camera. Stay sharp, whatever the light The EF 100-400mm F/4.5-5.6L IS II USM delivers sharp, high-contrast images, using Fluorite and Super Ultra-low Dispersion (Super UD) lens elements to tackle artefacts and distortion. A three-mode Image Stabiliser guards against blur from camera shake, allowing handheld shooting with shutter speeds up to 4 stops slower than normal. Fear no flare Shoot into the light confident that Canon’s multi-layered Air Sphere Coating (ASC) will protect against flare, ghosting and reduced contrast. ASC uses a multi-layer coating to reduce reflections including a layer of nanosised air spheres deposited on the lens surface to slow down light more gradually as it enters the lens, this prevents the internal reflections that reduce image quality. Ergonomic handling Different photographers work in different ways. Use the Zoom Touch Adjustment ring to set the amount of resistance felt when zooming the lens: a light touch is ideal when you’ll be working quickly in a fast-changing situation. On the other hand, you might want to stiffen or lock the zoom mechanism when you don’t want the focal length to change accidentally. Fast focus when you want it Enjoy fast USM auto focus that locks on accurately and in near-silence. Full-time manual focus override allows precise adjustment without taking your camera away from your eye. The EF 100-400mm F/4.5-5.6L IS II USM focuses down to 0.98m, letting you react to subjects that come unexpectedly close. Protected from the great outdoors Keep shooting even in tough weather conditions. As an L-series lens, the EF 100-400mm F/4.5-5.6L IS II USM is sealed against dust and moisture, so you can keep shooting even when conditions turn bad. A fluorine coating on the lens’ front element repels dirt making the lens easy to clean. Compact size and weight The EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM is the perfect optic for photographers on the move. With compact dimensions it takes up minimal room in a kit bag and can be relied upon to perform the moment it’s fitted to a camera. Its relatively light weight and superb quality builds on EF lens heritage and continues Canon’s excellent reputation for usability and performance. Exceptional versatility The EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM has been designed to exceed expectations with a focal length range of particular appeal to landscape as well as sports, action and wildlife photographers. Instinctive user controls The new ET-83D lens hood for the EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM features an access window, useful for adjusting filters. Different photographers work in different ways.
