Product Description
The Canon USA 7042A002 70mm to 200mm /f2.8 IS USM is an exceptional zoom lens for use with a Canon SLR camera body (35mm or Digital). A unique feature is that this lens incorporates Canon's second generation Image Stabilization technology. Maximum Diameter x Length, Weight - 3.4 x 7.8, 3.24 pounds
Amazon.com Product Description
Incorporating Canon's second-generation Image Stabilization technology, this 70-200mm telephoto zoom responds in as little as 0.5 seconds while providing up to three stops of correction for camera shake. As a result, you can easily capture the far-off action of fast-paced sports or zoom in for an intimate portrait with a blurred background. The lens's autofocus (AF) system, meanwhile, has been refined for better response time and tracking speed. And photographers will love the new eight-blade circular aperture, which offers a more pleasing out-of-focus image. Constructed to pro standards, the EF 70-200mm lens is highly dust- and moisture-resistant and carries a one-year warranty. - Focal length: 70-200mm

EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM lens October 10, 2008
What can I say that hasn't already been said about this lens? Absolutely wonderful. Fast accurate focusing for sports. Tremendously wide aperture. Crisp images. Great bokeh. Expensive, but well worth it.
Caon 70-200 IS October 9, 2008
Pros Best lens I have bought yet.

This is one of the most versatile high quality lenses around. For the hobbyist, this will suffice as your number one lens for portraits and medium distance telephoto shots. It's a fast lens with exceptional quality glass.
This lens, along with the EF 14-35mm f/2.8L USM and the EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM is all a serious hobbyist-photographer needs as basic gear. Ok, it's expensive; but so is quality. If you're a designer and not a pure photographer, then don't waste money on high quality glass. A high end point and shoot will do. Photoshop/Painter skills is where you should invest.
Simply one of the best October 3, 2008

What else can I say that has already not been said. I am should have not purchased a couple of consumer lenses and went straight for the gusto. It might be a bit heavy, but this lens is the greatest.
My favorite for shooting action September 16, 2008

I shoot a lot of horse events (dressage, jumping, etc.) and this lens has rapidly become my favorite, both for range and speed. Stops action with crisp detail and beautiful color. Somewhat heavy, but pretty much ANY lens in this category is going to give your arms a workout. I use a monopod for more stability.
