That's because that particular lens is designed for an APS-C or 1.6X crop sensor. Its image circle is not large enough to fill the sensor of your Mark II.

Of all Canon lenses recently made, it would be easier to list those that will not work on a MKII than those that will work.

Since the OP was able to mount it on the Mk II, I'm betting it wasn't a Canon EF-S lens, but a 3rd party.

I guess the lens that you put on the body is an EF-S. Would actually be clearer if you tell us which lens.

Weird, I don't see ANY non-EF lenses in his collection. It's actually a REALLY nice collection of lenses :)

wow, that's like $8K worth of equipment :)

OP - The 200mm f/2.8L II would work fine on your 40D and 5D, just like all your other L lenses.
