Canon EF 200mm f/2.8L II USM

Now, now, don't start that thing again.. This thread is long enough. LOL.

I used this lens again yesterday. I was able to film the subject talking (a retirement dinner) then move to the side to photograph them talking, all while not staying too far from my XL2.

Awesome dudes (used a flash too. Just to keep the light up there).

Thanks Sfordphoto I guess I should use RAW more often.

Got mine yesterday for when I need a bit more reach than the 135L. Loving it already

You're telling me!

This shows what this lens can do I think. The 1D really brings it out.

Yep, it's mighty sharp. Also works well for macro if you bolt a tube or two on...

Great angle and backlight! ^^^

Wow what a nice lens!.. Wonder if I could live without flexibility of a zoom.. But damn what a nice price for beautiful lens

This was at f/5.6, looks great as a desktop background - it's a BIG spider then

That's the first shot here that's really impressed me. Sorry but most of the shots here just haven't lit my fire. But this image is sensational.

This is a lens that I'm very interested in, purley because the zoom version is so big and heavy. I have a sigma 70-200/2.8 which I am very happy with, but I mostly use it wide open and maxxed out...so i might as well get a prime. The bag weight will be less and this lens is less conspicuous.

Try taking that one with your 24L Hoff.



Nice, nice, nice photo.
