Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM announced
Just a few weeks ago I mentioned in another thread that I saw the patent applications for several new Canon lenses. One of them was the EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM.
Today, Canon announced the release of this beast.
Features include a redesigned optical design which has a fluorite element and 5 UD elements to control chromatic aberrations.
Minimum focusing distance has been reduced to 1.2m and an increase in maximum magnification to 0.21x.
External changes feature a wider focusing ring.
I think I'll be putting an order in for one as soon as it's available locally. US availability should begin in April, with a price to be determined.
