The lens utilizes two fluorite elements to minimize chromatic aberrations and color fringing, resulting in superior color accuracy and clarity. Additionally, a Sub Wavelength Coating has been incorporated on individual elements to suppress flare and ghosting, providing improved contrast and color neutrality when shooting in backlit environments. With its fast f/2.8 maximum aperture, this lens offers great control over depth of field and performs well in challenging lighting situations.

This 300mm f/2.8 lens boasts a four stop-effective Image Stabilizer system with three different modes to fit various shooting needs. It also features a professional ring-type USM for fast, quiet, and precise autofocus, as well as full-time manual focus override. The lens is weather-sealed and comes with a removable rotating tripod collar for use in challenging conditions or on a tripod or monopod.

• Super telephoto prime is designed for full-frame Canon EF-mount DSLRs, however can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 480mm equivalent focal length.
• Fast f/2.8 maximum aperture benefits working in low-light conditions and also affords significant control over depth of field for working with selective focus techniques.
• Two fluorite elements are used to greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to achieve greater clarity and color accuracy.
• A Sub Wavelength Coating has been applied to individual elements to control lens flare and ghosting for greater contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.
• An Optical Image Stabilizer helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake by up to four shutter speed stops to better enable working in low-light conditions and with slower shutter speeds. Three distinct IS modes are available: standard single-shot mode, a panning-optimized mode, and a mode that only activates the Image Stabilizer during the exposure.
• A ring-type Ultrasonic Motor (USM), along with optimized focusing algorithms and a high-speed CPU, is employed to deliver fast, precise, and quiet autofocus performance as well as full-time manual focus override.
• Focus Preset function is available to quickly recall a programmed focusing position.
• Focus Limiter switch lets you constrain the focusing to three different ranges to suit different applications.
• A Power Focus setting is available, and allows you to electronically and smoothly adjust your focus position to suit video recording. This setting utilizes a dedicated ring in front of the main focusing ring and allows you to use one of two different focusing speeds.
• Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.
• As a member of the esteemed L-series, this lens is sealed against dust and moisture for working in inclement environmental conditions.
• Removable rotating tripod collar is included and benefits working with the lens atop a tripod or monopod.
• Compatible with optional EF 1.4X and EF 2X teleconverters.
