January 6, 2010: Canon Australia has announced an update to its popular EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM telephoto zoom lens for professional photographers and serious photo enthusiasts. ![]() Canon’s new EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM lens. (Source: Canon.) The inclusion of fluorite elements not used in its predecessor and an additional UD lens element (bringing the total to five) gives the EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM lens improved optical performance. Optimised lens design and lens coatings minimise flare and ghosting, enabling the new lens to produce high-resolution, high-contrast images with reduced chromatic aberration. The combination of these technologies also delivers improved colour balance. ![]()
