The Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens is a professional-grade telephoto zoom lens designed for full-frame EOS DSLRs. It features a sophisticated optical design with one fluorite element and one Super UD element to minimize aberrations and distortions, resulting in exceptional clarity, sharpness, and color accuracy. The lens is coated with an Air Sphere Coating to reduce lens flare and ghosting, producing images with high contrast.
The lens is equipped with a four-stop Image Stabilizer that effectively reduces camera shake, enabling handheld shooting in low-light conditions. The rotation-type zoom ring and internal focusing mechanism, driven by an Ultrasonic Motor, ensure quick and intuitive handling. The lens is particularly well-suited for sports and wildlife photography, thanks to its versatile range of features.
The lens is housed in a weather-resistant barrel and features fluorine coatings on the front and rear elements to protect against fingerprints and smudges. Zoom control is enhanced by a dedicated tension ring, allowing for easy adjustment of zoom torque. The lens also includes a tripod collar that can be attached or detached while the lens is mounted to the camera, as well as an included lens hood that allows for easy adjustment of rotating filters.
