Canon EF 200
2.8L-II (USM) Auto Focus Telephoto Lens

Building upon the success of
its predecessor; the EF
200mm f/2.8L; the "II" in
this latest 200mm lens model
number refers to
improvements suggested by
the most important people of
all - Canon customers. For
instance, the pull-out hood
featured on the original
model has been replaced by a
separate, larger and more
effective hood, the ET-83B;
making this model unique in
its class of moderately
priced, single focal length
lenses.
The EF 200mm f/2.8L II USM
employs Canon's famous
rear-focus telephoto optical
design that delivers
outstanding picture quality
throughout its entire
shooting range - even at
middle and close distances.
And like its high-end
siblings, this lens also
uses two ultra-low
dispersion (UD) glass
elements to ensure maximum
image sharpness and accurate
color fidelity; and Canon's
advanced ultrasonic focusing
motor (USM) and rear
focusing design for silent,
high speed autofocusing. The
EF 200mm f/2.8L II USM is
perfectly suited for Canon's
EOS system cameras, placing
special emphasis on manual
focusing capabilities. The
new 200mm f/2.8L II USM lets
you get up close and
personal, and still keep
your distance. |
| EOS compatibility is
ensured. EOS-dedicated
information such as metering
and focal length is
transmitted directly through
the lens mount to the camera
body. |
| Large maximum aperture of
f/2.8 allows full use of the
cross-type BASIS feature on
all EOS cameras from
infinity to the closest
shooting distance of 4.9ft.
(1.5m). |
| Ultra-low dispersion (UD)
glass compensates for
chromatic aberration and
ensures accurate color and
sharp, clear images. |
| Ultrasonic Motor (USM) and
rear focusing design allow
for silent, high speed auto
focusing and full-time
manual focus. |
| Smooth manual focusing is
accomplished through Canon's
mechanical manual focusing
system and wide rubber
focusing ring for easy
adjustments. |
| Added focusing versatility
through full compatibility
with 1.4x and 2x EF
Extenders. |
