At the first impact I immediately noticed its robustness and the weight not really contained... it's not a lens that you can take it with you too long. Like all l-series lenses, it shows remarkable sharpness and has a very pleasant blur. The colors are faithful... has a quick focus, in the portraits it gives a certain three-dimensionality... Very recommended. |
 | sent on August 27, 2019 Pros: Sharpness, image quality, brightness Cons: Absence of tropicalization Opinion: After a year of use I can say that having gone from the stabilized f4 version to this, 2.8 not IS, was a great choice. I feared the absence of the stabilizer combined with the higher weight of the lens and instead I do not miss it at all: the amount of photos with micromove is absolutely negligible while always shooting freehand. The image quality is top, you find the files clean, practically already finished and with gorgeous colors and blurring. I use it mainly for sports, but also for portraits and reportage. Considering also that taking it used and selling the f4 IS I spent virtually nothing, the move was a success. The higher weight compared to the f4 version is something you know at the time of purchase, so you can't say it's a flaw but a feature of the lens. I still find it well balanced and comfortable to wield. The absence of tropicalization can be a limit, however I have not encountered problems even using it very outdoors in non-clean contexts. |
 | sent on May 27, 2019 Pros: Robustness, Af that does not mistake a shot, bright, colours Cons: Minimum focus distance Opinion: I used the lens in question on two camera bodies: 5D Mark III and 7D Mark I (it will be my next camera body). What about, sensational. Nice to use, quick focus, no mistake a shot. Sharp and with sublime colors, it adapts to anything. I went from street photos, macro, to moving objects without any problem, gave me great emotions. Using the only single point of MAF on both camera bodies I had the chance to appreciate with my own eyes a bokeh never seen until now. Natural and well defined, lust for the eyes. The only downside is maybe the minimum focus distance, but it's a 10 lens. To have in the kit. |
 | sent on August 09, 2018 Pros: Robustness, fast and precise AF Cons: Not Tropicalizato, resistance to flare Opinion: Had for 5 years on 5d and 5d III and many of my photos here in the Forum are made with the aforementioned lens. Very well built, with precise AF. Sharp even at full aperture but not the best around. Tamron G2 and Canon II series beat him in this field. Excellent blur, you notice enough chromatic aberration at full aperture. The resistance to flare is a weak point unfortunately. Watch where the sun is if you shoot with the low sun on the horizon. Unfortunately not tropicalized and in my 5d III the hooking had a little bit of play. However it is a lens that I recommend especially for portraits but also landscapes. |
  | sent on June 29, 2018 Pros: All Cons: Boh... Nothing. Opinion: I have it for a couple of days when I used it in any context I could think of, without artistic ambition, just to test. Optical excellence, he does not despise any photographic genre (except fauna, where it would be very short), he gave me photos fully satisfactory from the point of view of colors, sharpness etc. I mounted it on three different bodies (5d old, 1DsII and 6DII), well it left an indelible imprint on my heart especially in the portrait with embodied rendering that many dream and in the landscape where the sharpness from the 2.8 is already present in a sensational. Accustomed to fixed optics, I did not expect such a soft and engaging bokeh. Three-dimensionality is not an option in this beautiful lens. I thought I had some regrets for giving away the 70-200 F4 stabilized, but now it's just a pleasant memory. The weight? So what? Want a professional perspective? There is no plastic here and it's not for half-cartridges. For them, there are the ML. Here you are serious and you save on the gym. Enjoy! Update of 02/07/2018: brought to the field for a service for the soccer team. Well, you know, the light conditions after dark are terrible. Well, auto-ISO is TV at 1/250, to always fit at every focal time in security. Maremma! Opened to the Max, looking for the light and I say between me "farewell sharpness, diaphragm 2.8 I expect a disaster... "Instead, on the display, not known blurry or blurred. At home, on the monitor, I was pleasantly pleased. Caned about 3 photos on a 400 session and change. Gentlemen, take care that convincing a car like 6DII to play sports, well, chances are running. The machine, other times, had not betrayed me but even convinced too much. Tonight, with this light cannon, he gave me really effective photos with sharpness and three-dimensionality that I did not believe. In summary: It proved to be excellent even in critical situations where you need quick times but also sharpness and overall goodness of the image. He gave the Turtle 6d II a more gear! Weighs a bit, the difference with F4 is marked, but just a minimum to get used to it. Sconsigliatissimo to those who want "the doll outfit" where you weigh the equipment to travel light. I tell you more: attached to the 1ds Mk. II is Bilanciatissimo. Three kilograms. In all pure pleasure. |
user69293  | sent on June 09, 2018 Pros: Sharpness, bokeh, AF speed, build quality. Cons: Minimum focusing distance. Opinion: I have it for a couple of years and several times I thought to sell it to move to something lighter, (which by the way is the lightest in its category) but there are no better alternatives. It's a terrific target. Tested in ceremonies, landscapes, sports and concerts goes that is a marvel. It has an excellent optical quality, very sharp already at f 2.8, fabulous bokeh and AF always fast and reliable. Among the cons I should have put the stabilizer, but the realities do not need. I shoot almost always in AV mode without taking into account the shutter speed, so sometimes I find shots from 1/80 without any micromotion. I do not know how this is possible, it will be that the heavy weight goes to reduce vibration, the fact is that I use whole days in weddings even with short times and the photos are perfect. I regard it without doubt the best 70-200 2.8 for quality price for canon, recommended. |
 | sent on February 11, 2018 Pros: Very solid, luminous construction, lightning-fast and infallible autofocus, already very clear at f2.8.rnColoring micro-balance, well balanced microcontrast and excellent tactile feeling Cons: Stabilization (with reserve on use), absent tropicalization (?) RnDo not have it supplied Opinion: Bought 2 days ago, but to me quite familiar. rnHo long weighted on his purchase as I wanted once and for all to add a 70-200 2.8 to the kit. On balance if Canon produces it from the distant 95 and has never stopped a reason there will be. Although it has an old pattern is always a good solution, its value does not collapse so if you can make the step to the brother IS II you will not risk selling this lens below a certain threshold; in any case it is worth every penny spent, weighs and feels, but it is justified thanks to its phenomenal robustness and brightness.rnNitido already at 2.8 gives a delicate and pleasant bokeh to the eye, also help the colors and the general contrast.rnThe first approach It can be frustrating as it is still heavy and with a FF or series 1 after a few hours especially in difficult light conditions it will be more difficult to have a steady hand (with a 5D with BG and biancone turns around 3kg) .rnThe stabilizer is definitely a lack, but it feels only when you can not raise too manythe iso or you make shots in critical light situations (church and interior), with the right firmness can be photographed quietly even to 1/60 without major risks.rnThe flaw if you can consider such is that as a series L I would have expected the tropicalization, however I believe that even in not optimal conditions this lens knows how to work perfectly. rnAf frighteningly quick and precise, with the 3mt limiter becomes even more precise! rnThe advice? YES, a yes as big as a house! If you do not have money to get the IS II or you simply do not need it, give yourself this real L Lens! |
 | sent on November 16, 2017 Pros: all Cons: to want to be fuss-free the weight and the minimum focusing distance of 1.5mt. Opinion: I took a lot of photos with this magnificent goal, I do not think that at the time of his release there was nothing better and still has history, beautiful portraits, brilliant softness and sharpness, wonderful tonality, quick focus, fantastic boken, an object that only pleases you to hold it in hand then when you see the shots it's pure libido! To find a limit in my opinion the minimum focusing distance of 1.5mt, I would have preferred a higher magnifier ratio especially when photographing interns, especially ceremonies. An advice! if you find it a good buy it too because today you buy it at acceptable prices for the item, it seems to have paid me in £ over 2 million! vote 9.9 only for the minimum focusing distance. |
 | sent on October 01, 2017 Pros: Construction, sharpness already at f2.8, speed and precision MAF, creamy bokeh Cons: Nobody Opinion: More than I would call it Warranty. It is very well constructed and with a tactile feedback of solidity and robustness. The rings are wide enough. The weight I find suitable for the construction of the optic, the f4 is too small and light. The AF is fast and accurate, not a comma of a comma except for human error. The pursuit with 5D3 is spectacular. The backlight also works well, even af ??2.8. If I said that the opposite is the lack of IS I would have got the IS version so for what's great. |
 | sent on September 29, 2017 Pros: Stunning sharpness even at 2.8, excellent construction, accurate and quick f. Cons: If we just want to put it as a defect then I say weight Opinion: It has an unbelievable optic, it manages to cling sharply with great fixes with the advantage that this is a zoom, blur and full and soft and I really like it very much, the model laid out would make it more comfortable but from what I can say that I can say it around does not reach the same sharpness, so we say that there are pros and cons in both specimens, the construction is tanked but it is detrimental to the weight that is felt especially if you have to carry it around for long journeys some occasions I did not want to carry it behind. "All in all I'm really pleased with this lens and I think it will be difficult to separate me. |
 | sent on August 25, 2017 Pros: All. Cons: Anything. Opinion: It's the perfect optics. Extreme silence, dream bokeh and fast af.Construction to the top.Collection of the new. I would just take it to go to the stabilized version II but i do not know how worth it. It's better at 2.8 of All the third-party versions I tried including the Tamron 70 200 VC. I did a homemade test and it's even better than the 85 1.8 Canon and the Sigma 85 1.4 Sigma at the same opening. CUSTOMER. |
 | sent on August 20, 2017 Pros: Constructive quality, af, sharpness, brightness Cons: Nobody Opinion: The classic mid-size trolley that's fine a bit for everything. I personally adore it, af precise and fast, top clarity, beautiful bright with its f2.8 and constructive quality from true series L. For some it may be a bit heavy but the quality of construction and brightness are paying in weight guys: ) As for the absent stabilizer I never felt the need. |
 | sent on August 13, 2017 Pros: Optical quality, construction, autofocus Cons: Nobody Opinion: I had sold a specimen of this goal to buy the stabilized version II: personally I was not able to appreciate any significant differences, in the end I regained the smooth version I use for sporting events and portraits alongside a stabilized f / 4 for travel And landscapes.rnIt's not tropicalized, I used it under water during sporting events with no problem. It's amazing how such a vision so well-dated in the project can deliver such satisfying results: highly recommended! Rn |
 | sent on May 02, 2017 Pros: Solid construction, Series L, AT sharpness Cons: Low flare resistance, not tropicalized. Opinion: Exciting, you love it on the first shot. The 1.5m focal length is slightly long and at 200mm wide opening can be a bit shaky but the rest is top. With quick, sharp focus, colors and sharpness that leave you open, obviously bright and versatile, with The good level of noise resistance of a full frame now suffers from the maniacal need of the stabilizer. Weight and value is the quality, everything is quality. |

Go behind 2.2kg between body and lens is challenging but totally worth |
 | sent on March 17, 2017 Pros: Construction, colors, sharpness at TA, AF speed and precision Cons: Weight Opinion: I bought this optic after a thousand readings, reviews of friends files etc. I was undecided whether to take him or the Tamron 2.8VC. In the end I opted for the red band and am really satisfied. I use it on 5Dmk3 and 6D, coming from a 70-200 f4 smooth which was already a good lens, I was looking for that something beyond the mere luninosity, that is, a more tridimensionality more pronounced, colors and blurred even more beautiful, in short those typical features Of the lenses from the larger apertures, and so it was. For my kind of photos I do not feel the need for the stabilizer, anyway with some caution I managed to shoot even at 1/50 @ 200mm. Solid as a tank (and also heavy). The jump from the f4 version is really immense, I recommend it to everyone, do not ask too many questions is just fantastic, yield will leave you open. |
 | sent on November 14, 2016 Pros: construction and solidity, clarity, form af Cons: very poor resistance to flare Opinion: This optic has accompanied my father and now me from 1997.rnOttima construction, although he has seen all the colors (barrel and even a couple of drops) did not report any damage or defect operativo.rnLa internal use with satisfaction both for indoor sports and exteriors, landscapes, and (rarely) ritratti.rnLa lack stabilizer forces at a safe time to avoid camera shake, especially after long shooting sessions where, if untrained, its 1.3kg you can make use sentire.rnLo in combination with my 5d mark II and the qualitative yield it is very high both as sharpness that as chroma, even if not at the level of version II is.rnIl weak point is the resistance to flare in the presence of the front light, the optical here goes into crisis, showing all its limits with very marked flare that makes it unusable at certain controluce.rnIl his bread are the sporting events where weight less than the stabilized version makes it more easy to handle and very fast shutter speeds make it unnecessary stabilizer. rnPer portrait sessions I think the stabilizer moreimportant opening, then in this field also is f4 version is in my view preferable than this lente.rnNel complex for my needs I consider fantastic perspective that still accompany me for many years! |
  | sent on September 30, 2016 Pros: Blurred dazzling, general sharpness, color and strength Cons: Weight and lack stabilization (sometimes) Opinion: This is a really good lens, the zoom range is perfect, does not crush and maintains a quality of almost any length. The correction in post production (cartoon and distortion) are always minimum demonstrating that works to his already at optimum levels. Has full color and warm, I have never encountered significant flaws even in backlight. If you own weight, for those not used to it takes a bit 'to get us out and handle it, especially if it is used for concerts and events where you hold it attached to the body for a long time should get him the limits I would say. Because of this feature is a lens suitable for massive bodies that they know how to compensate for at least part of the weight, the transition from the 700D to 5D mk III for me was significant in terms of portability. Finally the lack of stabilization, especially the more extreme lengths, can create some discomfort but I must say that the hang of learn to manage it and understand that on the stand can give moltissimo.rnPer the digit youlocated in used really worth all the expense. Ah, the autofocus does not miss a beat! |
 | sent on May 24, 2016 Pros: very good image quality, blurry and beautiful colors, construction quality, speed and precision AF Cons: It is not weather sealed, slight but noticeable sharpening decline to 200mm in ta Closest focusing distance to focus 1.5m Opinion: This glass is marketed for more than 20 years. If you just came out was amazing, now it is no longer the top of the top, but it still represents an optimal choice if you do not need the stabilizer. The optical yield is very good already ta at all focal lengths, 200mm except where a slight decline, not dramatic, make it not advisable to use it multiplied on dense aps sensors. Just diaphragm still barely to get sharpness respectable. Colors and blurry are first rate. It is robust and reliable and focheggia fast, safe and quiet. A bit 'limiting the minimum distance of 1.5 m, perhaps the longest for this type of optics. Speed ??and accuracy of fire make it preferable to Tamron and Sigma in sports, where the stabilizer is not needed, as the fire needs to be lightning. Optics as portrait, landscape, sports, all, to the extent that lacks stabilization and therefore must use safety times. In short, the best is IS II, but it costs so much, then, if the stabilizer is not indispensabile, I think he is still there, very reliable mule. |
user80014 | sent on January 08, 2016 Pros: Sharpness, color rendering, construction Cons: Nobody Opinion: 26 # 39; optics must-have in the kit which moreover used on APS-C sees limited or canceled altogether a bit 'of vignetting and distortion around the edges to F / 2.8 and with a sharpness of relief as well as color rendering. This is a goal that if used properly can often convert a RAW to JPG directly without having to touch anything of vividness and color saturation in Camera RAW. 10 vote. |
 | sent on July 25, 2015 Pros: Sharpness, color, contrast, autofocus, built. Cons: Anything. Opinion: A 70-200 "historic", was the first L-series that I bought, I can only speak well. Excellent sharpness even at full aperture, a certain focal has a fabulous performance, a blade. The colors and contrast is excellent. Autofocus is a bomb, fast and accurate. I would say that the selling price of today is hard to find better, for those looking for stabilization can go on the SI II or search for an IS used. Here, if I have to find fault, I would rather say that maybe a tropicalization equal to the later models. For the rest, nothing to say the building remains at the top as we have become accustomed Canon. |
 | sent on January 27, 2015 Pros: good sharpness already in TA, af accurately and quickly, construction Cons: is not the MKII Opinion: I bought this beast a few months ago to replace bianchino, that is, a view is exceptional despite being a project vetusto no lenses in fluorite amazes me its sharpness (although it focuses very center lost on the sides), the thing + that I feel, in addition to weight, is the bokeh, great and sublime, great for portraiture, the AF is fast and accurate, especially by setting the selector to 3 meters, especially for the sin tropicalization, with 1D nn I had problems take it even in a little wet, but ok, like many of you I also think the portfolio and sincerely 1000 € of difference with the MKII in my nn are very justified, and it is still a very good lens that will give a lot of emotions. |
 | sent on October 04, 2014 Pros: Sharpness - Super fast and silent AF - construction already 'having hands immediately feels his professionalism' Cons: My opinion there are but for one thing ... "Stabilization" Opinion: I Bought this lens a week ago 'used, paid 680 Euro lens but really immaculate, as it should be treated by a professional, I did not have a Tele and frankly my Budget statement does not throw me on the Canon 70-200 f2.8 is II ( too expensive), for the moment, and then, including reviews and forum ... they sat down in front of me these three lenses (Tamron 70-200 f2.8 Di LD - Tamron 70-200 f2.8 Di VC USD - Canon 70 -200 f2.8 L USM) Structural looking beautiful all three but then I asked the question ... "which of the three? ignores that there are three lenses in really nice because then I found myself a 'moment to try them, then, all three but '... !!!! .... Pero ... !! ... taking into account that: On Juza Canon 70-200 is the first version, it says little sharp ... taking into account that 'Tamron is and is not there a big difference in price and for the price difference I was deciding to take Di LD, and I had decided, by decision but then came the question, "but if I have to keep a Tele not stabilized, that with the proper knowledge, you can cmq be the best, then I'll take the non-IS Canon !!! Cmq is a Canon L-series. To be noted that a friend of mine Is having the 1st vers. , Then I am decided to take the 70-200 and is not comparing them I can testify that the only difference for me is the lack of stabilization and with a steady hand or tripod or mono-foot with the L series is not you can 'have also much, much more '... so for enthusiasts and professionals and non-Canon 70-200 f2.8 L USM highly recommended .... |
 | sent on May 01, 2014 Pros: Sharpness, bokeh, AF speed, optical quality and construction. Cons: Weight, lack tropicalization. Opinion: Maybe it is the lens that I love most, I used it for portraits, landscapes, weddings, wildlife, sports, outdoor and indoor. Despite being a project relatively dated, it is still very valid and I find it a great alternative to the incomparable IS II. Over the years it has proven extremely reliable and robust. It is a very sharp lens even at room temperature, but the best results are obtained by closing two stops. The AF is very fast and very accurate, the building reflects the best philosophy series, L (a tank). Combined with the Canon 500D close-up lens macro gives excellent quality, putting an extender you can also reach the 1:1 ratio. Unfortunately, it is heavy and should remove the ring of the tripod when not in use (it weighs about a pound!), Or at least turn it to improve the ergonomics use freehand. |
 | sent on March 10, 2014 Pros: Sharpness, AF speed and precision, colors, ring, robustness, lens hood Cons: None Opinion: Taken for sports photography (but not only) and used with an "old" APS-C (30d). Speed ??and accuracy of focusing amazing, I had the opportunity to photograph with light is not optimal and the results have been very satisfactory. The weight is not a big problem as I had read in various forums. The objective is bilanciatissimo and not overly tired. However, there is always the option to mount it on the monopod. I mounted a filter protector of the Hoya Pro 1 and the definition and remained the same. Absolutely recommended. |

From the day I got it I'm loving it more and more, having tried even in critical light did not make me ever feel the lack of the stabilizer, combined with my Canon 7d allowed me to shoot up to 1/60 in accordance with good risultati.Autofocus fast and precise for the sport and birdlife (at short distances), great for portraits and landscapes.

Piotrowska price when you consider the wide focal range, I use it with 7d and 550d and has an excellent performance for portraits and landscapes sport . Do not you feel absolutely lack of stabilization, just knowing how to use the camera a bit and have a steady hand and allows you to take sharp even at 1/60 of a second. Short for birds and not excellent but good with the 2x multiplier at 1.4 x. Highly recommended to those who want to start doing professional work. for me a 9 because perfection does not exist. |

I used this lens on a Canon 5 D in a triathlon and I have to say that it is very versatile as possible. Despite his recent project is not a lens of the quality and exceptional durability.

 | sent on October 01, 2011 Pros: Construction typical of the series L - f 2.8 constant - extraordinary sharpness - ring stand included Cons: lack of IS, lack of tropicalizzione Opinion: I bought this lens several years ago and I fell in love immediately. The choice of the non-stabilized version was obliged, given the difference in cost (at the time did not do it again for work), and some say it is still sharper than the same with IS (first version). In all these years I have NEVER felt the lack of stabilization, I used it to tens of thousands of shots in skating and dance, in poor light conditions, always stand on the stage and in the halls of the monopod head Joy-stick 222. AF precise, made spectacular at all focal lengths and all apertures. I use it often combined with TC1.4x to recover a little 'focus on FF, the sharpness is always great and the AF on standard bodies 1 remains valid. Combined with the 2x TC (first version) the sharpness drops dramatically, as is normal for a zoom. |
