The Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS III USM is a premium L-series telephoto zoom lens designed for Canon full-frame and APS-C DSLR cameras. Featuring a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture, this lens excels in low-light conditions and delivers beautiful background blur (bokeh). The latest fluorine coatings and Super Spectra Coating reduce ghosting and flare, while an improved 3.5-stop Optical Image Stabilizer ensures sharper handheld shots. With fast and silent ring-type USM autofocus and rugged weather-sealed construction, it’s the ideal lens for sports, weddings, wildlife, and portrait photography.
