Pros: comparing it to version 2 NONE

Cons: COMPARING IT TO VERSION 2. lack of sharpness.

Opinion: I decided to review this lens that I bought, kept three days and returned to the sender, because DISGUSTED by the non-quality of this optics. I don't know if I have trimmed a defective optics and to know I would have to try another. But this one, new, is really pitiful. I used it twice, at the Zarrillo concert, because I use this lens for concerts, and I had brought only this, the photos taken were blurred, blurred, without detail. A colleague of mine told me, look it was probably because of the lights that were actually quite poor. But the next day I went to the POOH concert and this time not to risk, given the event, I also brought version 2. At that point I had no more doubts. The optics were poor, not very sharp, not very focused and gave that blur effect. I repeat I do not know if the optics were defective, but I certainly had no intention of sending it to canon for a check and waste time. I can only say that if Canon makes a lens like this... Don't complain if you lose customers. I will try to borrow this lens, for another concert, but now they have almost all switched to sony and those who do not have sony have switched to mirroles and therefore has RF optics, so if you are going to buy this lens, I advise you to try it first... For concerts it is not good at all. For other things I don't know.

Pros: Sharpness, AF speed, price with the release of the new RF

Cons: Nothing to report

Opinion: I come from the first version of the 70 200 f 2.8, you can clearly see the difference in sharpness and speed of the AF, having never tried the mark II I can not give a judgment of comparison with the predecessor. the lens proves to be very resistant and ductile, you feel a bit the difference in weight with the new RF but the quality is not discussed, I tried it both on R3 and on 1DX and I did not notice any difference, it has always given its best on all occasions. Excellent UPGRADE from the first version.

Pros: Pretty much everything its predecessor had but with an improved yield in flare resistance and backlight management, slightly stronger stabilization, sharper sharpness at 2.8, improved speed ratio

Cons: not a real upgrade considering that it changes only in terms of yield and sharpness that (in my opinion) were not needed at all considering the quality of the predecessor, all this makes it practically meaningless considering also the advancement of the mirrorless optics.

Opinion: Tried and tested for two months, an exceptional lens, practically perfect on all its aspects but, does it really make sense to buy it ? Compared to its predecessor it has only improvements in terms of central sharpness and angles, a clearer stabilization at longer focal lengths and a slightly better speed ratio, and if we really have to say it all they could at least bring down the minimum focusing distance since it remains practically stationary at one meter and twenty ... I therefore reiterate that if the second version already offers a lot how useful could it be? For the rest it is really impeccable, colors, blurred, beautiful shades ... Definitive for portraits, sports, reportage even in very harsh conditions, its global yield is very close to the latest L, such as 85mm f1.4 and 24-70 f2.8, buying it is a guarantee for many uses but I believe that in any case our dearest Canon Mother House has made a big hole in the water.

Pros: Construction quality, lens quality, very bright.

Cons: nobody

Opinion: Never bought, but had available for work. Lens that I used for ceremonies until before March 2020, which results in excellent and sometimes spectacular results. Would I buy it? ... no! because if on the one hand it has a spectacular yield, on the other it captures too much light. I think I am one of the few photographers who does not like large focal openings, considering that I never go down under F4 even if I shoot at night, spend over 2000 for an F2.8 I find it useless and I would prefer to spend them on another type of lens. That doesn't alter the fact that this is a 10-in-one lens, worth every penny spent.

Pros: It is a lens of high quality and reliability, from the fluidity of the rings to the stabilizer, from absolute silence to the rendering of images. It's beautiful.

Cons: No

Opinion: I sweated "seven coats" to get her new. There is not much to say because you immediately see that the quality that churns out, amazing is superb. I haven't used it for a long time yet but from the first shots you can tell it's a great product. I reluctantly sold the Ef 80 200 f2.8 L after 30 years of beautiful photos, but the speed of focus, the efficiency of the stabilizer of the EF 70 200 IS III L and the sharpness comes out the winner great.
