About this product

Product Information

If you're a professional sports photographer, the Canon EF 400mm f/2.8 L IS USM Lens may be right up your alley. This Canon lens will also be useful if you wish to get up close to shoot images of wildlife. The Canon EF 400mm f/2.8 L IS USM has the range to put you right in the middle of the action with a maximum aperture that will let you use very fast shutter speeds. What's more, on sensor cameras of APS-C size, you’ll have the effect of using a 600-millimeter telephoto lens. This lens is part of the L series from Canon. These lenses use special optical technologies such as Ultra-low Dispersion UD glass, Super Low Dispersion glass, fluorite elements, and aspherical elements to push the optical envelope. As a result, the L-series lenses will give you outstanding image quality. You can expect great results when it comes to both color and contrast. In addition, distortion is negligible. With that type of performance, you can add a Canon EF 1.4x extender to the Canon 400-millimeter IS, and you will have a 560-millimeter f/4 IS focal length lens, which is fast for this particular telephoto type. When you pick up this 11.8-pound lens, you’ll feel the quality construction. It has a magnesium alloy barrel and gaskets to provide an effective seal in adverse weather conditions. It also has Canon’s built-in, two-stage stabilization system. This highly effective image stabilization will give you an extra four stops of steadiness. One additional feature of this IS system is that it senses when there is a tripod in use. As a result, it won't attempt to correct for motion that isn't there. What's more, there is a second IS setting that helps correct for extraneous panning motion by correcting on a single axis. The Canon EF 400mm f/2.8 L IS USM has a tripod socket on the barrel, allowing you to balance the weight more effectively with your camera. The rotating collar lets you switch from a vertical to a horizontal photo without taking the lens off the mount. This telephoto is practically distortion-free, and the fluorine coating on the front and back elements help to protect it from both dust and pesky fingerprints. The autofocus speed is extremely fast, which is key for both sporting events and nature shots. The autofocus offers a mode to help you capture stationary objects and two different modes to catch moving subjects more effectively. It also has a three-position focus limiter that you can use to reduce “hunting”, which can become an issue when you’re trying to capture fast-moving action. This lens also includes a focus-preset feature. Set the focus preset to a specific distance and simply turn the white knurled playback ring on the end of the lens. That can be extraordinarily useful when shooting sports photos. Whether you're an amateur or a budding professional, this Canon EF 400mm f/2.8 L IS USM Lens will help you to get all of the high-quality shots you need.

    Canon EF 400mm f/2.8 L IS USM Lens

    I haven't taken that many photos with this yet and still plan to get down to the beach to capture both long board and short board surfers as well as looking forward to heading out to Vandenberg to chronicle rocket launches, perhaps some birding, and then some. What few photos I have taken seem to be very sharp and the lens is very responsive. My only concern is the weight. Definitely requires a good quality and stout tripod and/or maybe a gimbal head too? This was a pretty extreme purchase for me, but I have to admit that I've been curious for a long time about this lens. Maybe the II would be a little lighter, but I imagine it is pretty hefty in weight as well. I got this lens at what I consider a reasonable cost and hopefully will get my money's worth out of it, maybe even share it ...

  • Excellent Sports outdoors lens!

    This lens has allowed me to get photos I wasn't able to capture before. The lens works indoors as well as outdoors. I primarily purchased to cover sports, but it has so much more to offer. I checked around prior to making the purchase and feel it was worth the wait. The other reason it is so much lighter than the first 2.8 L series of 400mm, but not the latest one. Neither is it anywhere near the cost of the latest series. The IS gives me a lot of extra options when it comes to lower lighting situations when using a mono-pod. Also, when time allows, my plans are to attempt some bird photography and this lens give me the courage to take on the challenge. This has been one of my best investments on ebay! As time permits, I'll update to this review... I am excited!

  • The most perfect 400mm 2.8 lens around

    The Canon EF 400mm f/2.8 II IS L Lens was a long time coming for me. As a sports photographer for a major wire service and area newspapers, I needed the extra reach and sharpness with this Canon lens. Though about 3 pounds lighter than its predecessor, I still required some arm workouts to carry the lens around on the field for 4 hours, even on a monopod. The AF is very fast, but this depends on your camera body. I am using a Canon 1DX2, and it is as fast as lightning and razor sharp. I can hardly think how Canon can improve this lens, other than adding a built-in switchable 1.4x teleconverter. Essentially, this is a specialized lens that caters to sports photographers. however, great for wildlife photography with either the 1.4x or 2x teleconverter. Major downside is the price, but if ...

  • I was happy with the purchase. If you are looking for a less expensive route to get into a 400, this is it.

    It's the older version of the 400 2.8. I have it coupled my Sony A9 and the MC-11 adapter. I'm very pleased with the performance. Image is sharp, autofocus is fast. It is heavy as all get out ... but I expected that with the older model. Glass is in good shape. The exterior is a bit ragged, but so am I.

  • Work horse!!!!!!!

    My lens of choice used to be the 24-70 2.8 ii. That has now changed. This lens is a BEAST! Beautiful bokeh and extremely sharp. I was entertaining getting the version iii, but I don’t see how they could possibly improve this lens any more than it is. You won’t be disappointed...
