This lens corrects colour aberration with four low-refraction, low dispersion UD lens elements. It makes good use of available light for sharp, clear imaging performance. The ring-type USM and inner focusing system deliver quick and quiet autofocusing. Operability is enhanced by the full-time manual focus system as well as the possibility of autofocus at 98-280mm f/4 or 140-400mm f/5.6 when used together with the Extender EF1.4xII or EF2xII.

This large-aperture telephoto zoom lens has an Image Stabilizer that can compensate for approximately 3 shutter speeds*1. With thorough dust-proof and drip-proof*2 treatment, this lens can be used under harsh conditions. The optical system uses four UD lens elements for high-contrast, sharp picture quality. The circular aperture diaphragm offers a beautiful blur effect. It is also equipped with a full-time manual focus that can be used in autofocus mode.

This lens corrects colour aberration with four low-refraction, low dispersion UD lens elements & a fluorite lens element. It makes good use of available light for sharp, clear imaging performance. The ring-type USM and inner focusing system deliver quick and quiet autofocusing. Operability is enhanced by the full-time manual focus system as well as the possibility of autofocus at 98-280mm f/4 or 140-400mm f/5.6 when used together with the Extender EF1.4xII or EF2xII.

With a low weight of 705g, this light and compact telephoto zoom lens is easy to carry around. It corrects for secondary spectrum with its one fluorite lens element and two UD lens elements, offering excellent imaging performance throughout the range of the zoom. With a closest focusing distance of 1.2m, close-up photography at a magnification of 0.21x is possible. And if used along with the EF17-40m f/4L USM, you will be able to enjoy photography with a much higher efficiency than having to carry a dozen lenses around.

This compact telephoto lens comes with an Image Stabilizer that compensates for camera shake so you can shoot at up to 4 shutter speed steps slower without blur. The lens’s optical system uses one fluorite lens element and two UD lens elements to render high-resolution, high-contrast image quality at all zoom lengths. Another attraction of this lens is its circular aperture diaphragm, which creates beautiful blur. The dust-proof and drip-proof*¹ construction, along with fast and quiet AF and manual focus override, makes this lens an excellent performer in the field.

This user-friendly telephoto zoom lens covers a broad zoom range from 70mm to 300mm. the built-in image stabilizer (IS) mechanism counteracts the effects of camera shake by approximately three shutter speed steps. In addition to “camera shake correction mode 1” suited for shooting stationary objects, this lens is also provided with “camera shake correction mode 2” that offers the easy enjoyment of panning filled with a sense of speed. Only environmentally-friendly lead-free glass is used in the optical system made up of 15 elements in 10 groups and a UD lens, which achieves high image quality at all focal lengths, is employed in the first lens of the third group. Furthermore, the optimization of lens positioning and coating minimizes the flare and ghosting that often occur in digital cameras. A zoom ring lock keeps the lens at its shortest length in the wide position and prevents the lens barrel from extending and striking any objects when the lens is being carried attached to a camera with a strap. The use of micro USM lens drive, a high-speed CPU and an optimized autofocus algorithm ensures autofocusing that is both quiet and fast. The image stabilizer mechanism and the optical system utilizing a UD lens, combined with other features such as the zoom ring lock function and relatively compact size and weight, make this a highly advanced and user-friendly lens.

With the newly developed triple-layered DO lens and a glass-mold (GMo) aspherical lens, this telephoto zoom lens achieves high imaging quality comparable with L lenses in an ultracompact size, approximately two-thirds that of conventional lenses*1. The DO lens has a three-layer structure suited to zoom optics to resolve the problem of unwanted diffraction flares generated when zooming. While realizing a truly compact size, it compensates for chromatic and spherical aberration and offers the high-resolution and high-contrast imaging performance of an L lens. This lens also maximizes operability with an image stabilization mechanism with approximately 3 shutter speed*2 correction capability, a zoom ring lock that maintains the lens at its shortest length when carried, and a full-time manual focus system. This lens employs environmentally friendly lead-free glass, and with an optimized lens coating and optical design, it minimizes flare and ghosts, which often occur with digital cameras.

With the same optical system as the EF75-300mm f/4-5.6 II USM, this lens is lightweight, compact, and has a high-magnification zoom. Able to cover the entire range from 75mm to 300mm (the most commonly used focal distances), it will let you stay on your feel looking for that perfect shot. The autofocus drive system has a micro motor.

This high-magnification zoom lens is the smallest and lightest in its class, offering ideal cost-performance. A lightweight glass material was used for the first element group – the heaviest group in the optical system – to reduce operational load during autofocus operation. Combined with the micro USM, the autofocus is quick and quiet. The slim exterior and smooth zooming makes this lens a delight to use.

The EF100-400mm zoom lens is a telephoto zoom lens which also delivers very clear picture quality with an Image Stabilizing mechanism. With a 4x zoom ratio and high-contrast colour reproduction, it has everything you could want from a telephoto zoom lens. The 6-group zoom system with 5 moving groups thoroughly eliminates secondary spectrum thanks to the fluorite and super UD lens elements. All aberrations are corrected in the middle focusing distances thanks to the rear focusing system and the floating system – a first for a zoom lens. The closet focusing distance is 1.8m, and the autofocus is quick and quiet thanks to the ring-type USM. A full-time manual focus, an adjustment ring which can adjust how the zoom ring feels, and much else besides combine to bring you outstanding operability.

Equipped with image stabilization, this telephoto zoom lens is designed specifically for digital SLR cameras that support the EF-S series. Thanks to an optical system that maximizes the potential of a small image circle, it boasts a high zoom ratio while maintaining a wonderfully compact and lightweight design. Superb ease-of-handling assures effortless shooting of fast moving subjects and the super compact IS unit reduces camera shake by up to approximately four full shutter speeds steps*¹ – a must at long focal lengths and helpful when focusing and framing. Because the IS unit automatically distinguishes between normal shooting and panning, it ensures appropriate camera shake compensation without the need for manual adjustments. This brings peace of mind in situations containing both static and dynamic activity, as well as when shooting erratically moving subjects such as children and animals.

Featuring a UD lens element to greatly minimize color bleeding, this lens delivers sharp, clean images that exhibit high resolution and superb contrast. Both the lens element array and lens coating are optimized to reduce flare and fhost, problems often associated with digital SLR photography. A minimum shooting distance of approximately 1.1m/3.6 feet applies over the entire zoom range and combines with a circular aperture to produce extraordinary close-ups with beautiful background blurs.

NOTE: Can only be used with digital SLR cameras that support EF-S lenses.
