Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens

Close in on the action with the EF 70300mm f/45.6 IS II USM telephoto zoom lens. With a wide zoom range and fast, nearsilent autofocus, it can be ideal for anyone looking to capture distant subjects. Equipped with NANO USM technology it quickly focuses so you're able to get the exact moment you want, as it happens. This technology also helps provide ultraquiet operation while video recording to help ensure the only audio you hear is what you intended to keep. While you're setting up that ideal shot, the new Lens Information Display provides a convenient way to check focal length, focus distance or depth of field with just a quick glance. If you find yourself without a tripod and unable to keep the camera perfectly steady, builtin Image Stabilization will help keep your images as clear as possible despite camera movement. Inside, the EF 70300mm f/45.6 IS II USM has an optimallyplaced UD lens element which helps produce highcontrast and highdetail images while reducing chromatic aberrations. Combining a wide zoom range with fast autofocus and highquality optics, the EF 70300mm f/45.6 IS II USM is perfect for APSC camera and fullframe camera photographers, or anyone looking to expand their lens options with a fast and powerful telephoto zoom lens.

The EF 70300mm f/45.6 IS II USM's NANO USM technology delivers quick, nearsilent autofocus whether you're capturing an athlete jumping for a ball or recording wildlife in their natural habitat. For still images, it provides highspeed autofocus to help ensure you get the shot you want. When recording videos, the nearsilent operation keeps unwanted noise out of your videos. For additional artistic control, manual focus is also possible even when the lens is set for autofocus. This means that when recording a video, for example, you can slowly pull in or out of focus for a dramatic effect.

The EF 70300mm f/45.6 IS II USM features a new integral Lens Information Display for fast access to a wide variety of lens information. This lets you see the information you need at a glance, and then get right back to taking photos. The focusing distance display mode provides the distance the lens is focusing and an estimate of the depth of field, while the focal length display mode shows the 35mmequivalent focal length. In shake amount display mode, the Lens Information Display gives an estimate of how much the lens and the camera are moving. To aid viewing in different lighting conditions, both black text on a light background or light text on a black background are selectable.

With an allnew design, the EF 70300mm f/45.6 IS II USM features 12 groups with 17 total elements, including an optimally positioned UD lens. UD, or Ultra Low Dispersion, helps correct chromatic aberrations (colored halos around objects) while reducing color blurring and keeping overall detail high. This helps the EF 70300mm f/45.6 IS II USM produce sharp, highcontrast, richly colorful images throughout its zoom range.

For consistently sharp results, the EF 70300mm f/45.6 IS II USM features an improved Image Stabilizer system that provides significantly enhanced shake reduction for up to 4 stops* of shutter speeds. This means more reliable handheld performance and clearer detail in lowlight situations or at lower ISOs. Because of its enhanced stabilization, the EF 70300mm f/45.6 IS II USM can also help minimize the need for a tripod.
