Canon EF 300mm f/4L IS USM Lens

The EF 300mm f/4L IS USM gives you a whole new perspective on the world with its telephoto capabilities.

A telephoto lens is essential to any serious photographer. For sports action, you will need a fast shutter speed and a long focal length. A large maximum aperture allows a faster shutter speed. In this telephoto lens line-up, the focal lengths range from 135mm to 300mm. If you want compactness, choose a lens with a smaller maximum aperture. 

Excellent optics and superb handling in a compact package with Image Stabilizer. The IS allows safe hand-holding at shutter speeds up to two stops slower than otherwise possible, making it even more useful in low light levels. It’s less than half the weight of the 300mm f/2.8L IS, and it focuses to an incredibly close 4.9 feet (1.5m), filling the frame with a subject the size of a postcard. Like all of Canon’s fixed focal length L-series lenses above 135mm, it’s compatible with Canon’s EF Extenders 1.4x II and 2x II.
