Hire Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS III USM

Canon’s flagship short to mid telephoto zoom in the EF-mount lineup is a very likeable lens. It’s similar to the EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS II USM in the way it has a white shield coating and the same optical design, however the effectiveness of its optical image stabiliser is rated at 3.5 stops and it implements Canon’s Air Sphere Coating technology that improves its anti-reflection performance to reduce the impact of flare and ghosting. It returns extremely sharp results when it’s used at f/2.8, but does exhibit mild pincushion distortion at maximum telephoto. Users of Canon’s professional DSLR’s will be smitten with the quality of the images it returns.

The details

The essential telephoto lens for professional photography

A modern classic: this fast-aperture telephoto zoom lens is a favourite with photographers in virtually every genre. It’s now even better in bright light, and engineered to perform in the most challenging conditions.

Enjoy extra creative control

The lens’ f/2.8 maximum aperture makes it easy to emphasise pin-sharp subjects against a smooth out-of-focus background.

Low light? No problem

A 3.5-stop image stabiliser guards against camera shake. A fast f/2.8 aperture lets in twice as much light as an f/4 lens.

Superb image quality

Fluorite and UD optics deliver high contrast and excellent resolution. Improved lens coatings combat ghosting and flare.

Built to exacting standards

Protective seals guard against dust and moisture and fluorine-coated front and rear elements are easy to clean.

Fast, near silent autofocus

A ring-type USM motor focuses with amazing speed. Make manual adjustments at any time, just by turning the focus ring.

Thanks to its first-class fluorite and UD optics, the EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS III USM delivers high contrast and excellent resolution.
