Digital camera reviews of Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L USM Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras
Digital camera Review: Affordable L class glass
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had this lens for more than 4 years. I have mounted this on Rebel XT (350D) and been to events, weddings, zoo, etc. This is by far the best purchase that I have made in the last 5 years after moving to DSLR.
This is a very sharp, silent, and fast focusing lens and I enjoy the most among my lens collection.
I have considered moving to Nikon or Sony (peer pressure!) from Canon. But, due to quality of Canon glasses such as this, I have decided to stay with Canon!
(update May 2010): Now I'm using this on my 7D. With 7D set at 3200ISO, I don't need IS, 2.8, or tripod! This is the best $500+ that I spent 4+ years ago.
Digital camera Review: All that I wished for
Summary: 5 Stars
I have wanted a lens of this type for a long time.It is everything i wished for...
Maybe a little heavier than I expected but I can live with it...Awesome pics from near and far
Digital camera Review: Almost Perfect
Summary: 4 Stars
So I'm starting to get more serious about my photography. I went out and bought this as my entry to the "L" class of lenses. I mounted it on my 40D at home and I didn't really see what the big deal was. It wasn't until we went out for an Engagement shoot that I found the magic of this lens. The Bokeh was wonderful for my portrait shots. Absolutely wonderful. Very crisp pictures.
Almost perfect because of the f4 - it didn't do so well in the shade. But, I can't really complain since the 2.8 is almost twice as much and the 2.8L IS which is almost unreachable for the amateur. But one day it will be mine, oh yes, it will be mine.
I don't mind the white paint either, makes it look "professional". We were out on location and as soon as we took it out bystanders got out of the way of our shoot.
So in summation, it's a great price to try out the "L" lenses. This and the 17-40L. But remember that it's an f4 and that it's white if that makes a big deal to you.
Digital camera Review: Almost perfect!
Summary: 4 Stars
Love this lense but the only problem is that once you buy it and used it some months, you will wish to buy the Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras!
Digital camera Review: Amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this lens. I made the error of initially buying the lower quality Canon lens (Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III USM ). This lens is simply amazing. It is fast to focus, quiet and smooth operating, comfortable to hold. The only thing that would make better is a lower price.
