Canon EF 400mm f/4 DO IS USM

Canon EF 400mm f/4 DO IS USM

Price (MSRP): $5,300.00
TYPE: Fixed Focal Length Lens - Telephoto


The 400mm f/4.0 DO IS USM is Canon's breakthrough in multi-layer diffractive optical lens technology. This sheds new ground for sports, nature and wildlife photographers, giving exemplary results in a size previously unheard of for a lens of such a focal length and aperture. Simply put, the size and ease of handling must be seen to be understood. It also features fluorite and UD elements to elminate secondary spectrum chromatic aberration, the fastest AF speed in the world, full time manual focus override, and a two-state image stabilization.
