Answering the demand for an internally zooming, internal focus F2.8 telephoto zoom lens, Canon engineers listened to the market and delivered. Whether you are a sports photographer shooting against the glass at a hockey game, or balancing a camera and lens on a gimbal for a video production this 70-200 will definitely be a professionals “must have” in their kit.
Taking the same build and case as the recently introduced and wildly popular RF24-105 F2.8 L IS USM Z this lens will be a workhorse for both still and video creators. Photographers will notice the very short zoom ring rotation- making quick changes from 70-200mm with just a push or pull of your thumb. A manual, lockable iris ring is also added to this lens particularly for those video creators, but on the EOS R5 Mark II and EOS R1, will work for still photography also. The addition of two lens function buttons that are customizable as well as a control ring for even more function customization, allowing quick changes to lens or camera settings.
