Pros: excellent image quality even wide open, very accurate and fast AF, build like a tank, very effective image stabilizer

Cons: large, heavy, expensive

Opinion: Despite its high price the upgrade form the non-IS version or version I of the IS-model is worth the money. The image quality is great, tack sharp and with high contrast throughout the zoom range, even wide open. AF ist blazingly fast and accurate. The new lens hood design (with release knob and structured finish) is very appealing. The IS is somewhat noisy (especially when it starts working) but works excellent. The construction is outstanding: full metal body, no extending tubes, weather sealed (the non-IS has no weather sealing). Also very usefull is the reduced minimum working distance of only 120cm. Weight and price are high, but there is no other 70-200 zoom that can keep up with this excellent lens.

Pros: Sharpness, micro-contrast, stabilizer, AF, tropicalization, internal zoom, AF limiter, paraliue with "Clik"

Cons: Ridiculous kickstand bracket

Opinion: Several months ago I gave away the first IS version, also f2.8, to get this second version. The difference between the two is noticeable, of course, the file is more defined, better contrasted, you perceive it immediately, and already the previous version was in itself an excellent optics. The stabilizer works significantly better even if, personally, shooting sports photography always has a very short time. FINALLY Canon has equipped this lens devoted to the dynamic scene with a lens hood that engages with a nice "click" and that can be removed by physically pressing a button, the previous version did not have it and, after a few years of wear, you found yourself with the lens hood rolling in the middle of the football field. I found myself shooting in the rain, the previous version had no problems and neither does this version two. The limiter is very useful in dynamic scenes from the sidelines, I use it almost all the time and it makes the AF from "lightning" to "instantaneous". The only negative note I have to this lens is not the weight, it is not the cost, but it is the bracket for attaching it to the tripod. Ridiculous, if by chance you have to make a small move I can't use it as a "handle" since there are almost no fingers between the bracket and the body of the lens and, in any case, it is so short that it fits a finger and a half.. What can I say, a few more centimeters were enough. BUT that said, it's a great lens that I would re-buy 100 more times. Last note: excellent use with 2X (third series)

Pros:

Cons: Weight

Opinion: A lens that if you can carry around, does not make you regret fatigue. I used it extensively for sports photography, it allowed me to easily hook subjects at 100kmh at full aperture and churn out sharp photos with a beautiful blur. Always used on mirrorless, unfortunately it was heavily unbalanced by the adapter and here comes its only cons: weight. As much as I loved it in portraiture, I did without it because of the weight and bulk. Lens that I still loved with a fast and precise af, very sharp at all focal lengths and with a fantastic bokeh.

Pros: Exceptional colors, Sharpness, Stabilizer, AF, Tropicalized, bokeh.

Cons: The sacrifice of weight

Opinion: It is an exceptional lens for sharpness, at all apertures and focal lengths, of excellent build quality, with excellent stabilization that effectively helps in shooting and a very fast Autofocus. Its only fault is the weight it affects during transport and use. Weight to which we need to get used to and train the muscles, but the results obtained from him, amply repay the effort. You can easily work with it freehand, thanks to the excellent stabilization, but a monopod is always better to have it with you. The cost? I took it used on rce at a great price just over 1000 euros. It is one of those optics that must be part of your photographic kit, suitable for every photographic genre, from landscape and portraitist to sport and birdlife. It has the advantage, unlike the RF counterpart that increases the focal range does not increase in size, the movement of the lenses is all internal. The zoom dial is nice and precise. It is a lens suitable for use even for videomakers where obviously freehand use is not recommended and you have to rely either on a stabilizer (for example the Dji Ronin RS3 holds it well) or on the tripod. The hood can be mounted upside down on itself so as not to have the bulk in the backpack. It's a Top lens and deserves my 10

Pros: Build and optical quality, AF, Stabilizer, Collar

Cons: Dimensions, cost and weight

Opinion: You either love it or you hate it. I had several 70-200 including this one and love never snapped. It has a crazy, fast and very precise AF. It follows the subject even if it moves fast or if there is little light. The stabilizer does an excellent job considering also the tonnage of the lens. The tripod collar is free as well as the hood and bag. Qualitatively it looks like a dynamite-proof bazooka for how well it is done and looks solid. The cost is a considerable obstacle that relegates it mainly to professionals, to those who work can be included in the expense. Optical quality such as sharpness and aberrations here we are at the TOP for the first and non-existent the second. It can be multiplied and duplicated without batting an eyelid. What I think penalizes it in amateur use are size and weight. If I have to work I carry 1.5kg with me without problems as a work tool but if I have to go on vacation to have half a full backpack with only one lens and have 1.5kg of dead weight, well they make themselves felt a lot.
