Product Description

Featuring Fluorite optics that deliver sharper images with less chromatic
aberration, the new large-diameter EF 600mm f/4L IS II USM super telephoto lens
also takes advantage of magnesium and titanium construction for a lighter weight
and a Fluorine coating that keeps soiling, smears and fingerprints to a minimum.
Because image stabilization technology in super telephoto lenses may
inadvertently over-compensate and interfere with composing and framing distant
or moving subjects, the EF 600mm f/4L IS II USM includes an advanced third Image
Stabilization mode (Mode 3) that activates IS only when the shutter button is
fully pressed. This allows users to pan fast-moving subjects and then activate
IS only when it is precisely required. Because all three IS modes give the
equivalent effect of up to four extra stops of performance, and because plus the
Power Focus mode enables smooth focus change when shooting video, the EF 600mm
f/4L IS II USM is ideal for capturing rapid-fire action. Other improvements such
as better dust- and waterproofing make the Canon EF 600mm f/4L IS II USM super
telephoto lens an ultra high-performance Digital Age tool combining Canon
hallmarks of superb ease-of-use with excellent durability.
