A great lens and good option for a bit of reach when you can’t afford the long zoom or a super telephoto and insist on fast glass. Takes a little concentration & patience, little faster shutter to avoid shake. Monpod will be useful when feasable. Works out well on a D-series camera with the crop factor but don’t plan on using a telextender. Even the 1.4 will cost you 2 stops and decreases stability.

the 200mm f/2.8L is an awesome lens - imo the sleeper in the entire canon line. and the bundled items were better than I expected. the filters are great, the lens wrap is very cool, and the cleaning kit was a very pleasant surprise. if you have the money and a hint of inclination - buy this. it is truly awesome.

It has been hard to switch from the convenience of zoom lenses, but weight has become an issue for me and single-focus lenses seems to be the solution. This 200mm lens has produced some of my sharpest images, especially of the recent solar eclipse. Working with a Canon 5D Mk III and a fast Compact Flash card, I was able to record a beautiful series of sharp images during the totality phase. With a little work on Photoshop, I was able to bring to life details that could not be seen with the naked eye. Just wonderful. This morning I experimented with the macro end of the range and got some sharp images of bees at work.

Adorama bundle (with 3 filters) is a bit more useful than that offered (with 1 filter and a tabletop tripod) elsewhere. Quality of the 3 filters may not be as good as that of another bundle that has just a single filter; but you pay what you get. To me the quality of the 3 filters is good enough.

I bought this lens for event photography, volleyball, portraiture. I used it at a recent church event and I was really impressed. I could shoot from the back of the church and get very sharp pictures of the priests at the altar. Good Things: sharp, works well in low light, great background blurred, shoot from far away Bad: Heavy, if you don't have room to shoot you will be too close

Building upon the success of its predecessor; the EF 200mm f/2.8L; the "II" in this latest 200mm lens model number refers to improvements suggested by the most important people of all - Canon customers. For instance, the pull-out hood featured on the original model has been replaced by a separate, larger and more effective hood, the ET-83B; making this model unique in its class of moderately priced, single focal length lenses.
The EF 200mm f/2.8L II USM employs Canon's famous rear-focus telephoto optical design that delivers outstanding picture quality throughout its entire shooting range - even at middle and close distances. And like its high-end siblings, this lens also uses two ultra-low dispersion (UD) glass elements to ensure maximum image sharpness and accurate color fidelity; and Canon's advanced ultrasonic focusing motor (USM) and rear focusing design for silent, high speed autofocusing. The EF 200mm f/2.8L II USM is perfectly suited for Canon's EOS system cameras, placing special emphasis on manual focusing capabilities. The new 200mm f/2.8L II USM lets you get up close and personal, and still keep your distance.
