Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM lens

The Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM lens is the improved successor to the popular 100-400mm telephoto zoom lens. This powerful lens offers an impressive zoom range from 100mm to 400mm, ideal for capturing sporting events and wildlife in nature. It features effective 4-stop image stabilisation that minimises motion blur, even at full zoom. The fast and virtually silent autofocus, powered by a ring-type USM motor, ensures you never miss a moment. The short minimum focusing distance of just 98 centimetres significantly increases the flexibility of this lens.

The optical design is superior, featuring 21 lens elements in 16 groups, including Fluorite and Super Ultra-Low Dispersion elements for sharp, high-contrast images with minimal aberrations. The advanced Air Sphere Coating reduces flare and reflections, while the nine-blade aperture creates a beautiful background blur (bokeh). The robust, dust- and splash-proof design features a fluorine coating on the front and rear lens elements to repel dirt. A detachable tripod mount and the special lens hood with polarising filter access complete the ease of use. This versatile lens is an excellent choice for photographers who need a long reach and uncompromising image quality.
