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.

Pros: Sharpness, flare control, color rendition, build quality

Cons: Maybe just the selling price

Opinion: What about... Simply the ultimate in the focal one for the Canon world, lens really of excellent quality and widely exploitable also duplicated, really remarkable build quality and performance from "Top of the range" What would you want more? It's true it's not a completely new lens but an update of the II series... Yes, but..... That update, now in addition to all the other features that make it an excellent lens, even the control of the flare that was the weak point of the II series has been decidedly improved. Being able to do it is to be bought with eyes closed.

Pros: The quality L to the height of its fame.

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: I Come from the same lens Mark II, who had "exhausted" for too much work.... I changed it just to look for a better approach to backlighting and grazing lights... For me necessary for my work in the field of Coreutics. The difference you see a lot. The Controluci control has markedly improved (even if the miracles do not exist), but it manages to bear the detail much better, in the theater where precisely the differences disposition are enormous. They Say the stabilizer is better, but I, working at least a 500th, never use it... I did some experiments, and with my hand not steadfast I made sharp images at 1/45 second to 200mm, and I do not seem to little, but I work I do not use it so I do not know anything more.
