Canon EF 200 mm f/2.8L II USM
1. Introduction
The Canon EF 70-200 mm f/2.8L IS USM II, tested by us, at 200 mm showed excellent results in the frame centre and on its edge. Does a much older “prime” can fare better? The 70-200 mm model showed a sensational efficiency of its stabilization, the EF 200 mm f/2.8L USM II doesn’t have it at all. It is physically much lighter, handier and cheaper. Is it still worth our interest, despite more than a dozen years of the presence of the excellent 70-200 mm on the market? We hope that the results of our test will allow us to answer such questions.
We would like to thank Canon Poland for providing the lens for our tests.
