  • hello, first let me say i like your videos well informative, my question is is the IS version worth the extra $ 1000 when i shoot my kids sports and family functions , nothing professional just like good photos of my family and friends , Thanks in advance ,also will be putting lens on canon 7D

  • @805coach Hi, if you're not using it professionally then I would just save the money and get the non-IS. Just make sure you have a faster shutter speed.

  • Does the mkII lens hood fit on the 70-200mm mkI?

  • @blazewphotography I never try it but I don't think it will fit because the MKII hood has a small button to secure the hood in place.

  • hello i am mainly going to use this lens for sports and sports only. i was looking at getting a second hand mk1 its £1100 cheaper. is it worth the extra? sorry i know you hav had the same question alot.

    thanks

  • @MacOllyTips It's worth it for me because I benefit from the extra stop form the new IS system. If you can afford the new lens go for it, you won't be disappointed.

see all

  • @805coach I never used to have any IS lenses, then I got one. I will NEVER go back to a non-IS lens for anything that I'm hand-shooting.

  • @urwholefamilydied Think... if you can do much lower shutter speeds then 4 more then you do now. so the guy who shoot at 1/50 will get 4 more stops same as the guy who only do 1/125 but both get 4 more then with out IS

  • Am I the only one noticing, that the audio from that video goes from the left side to the right side and back all the time? o.O

  • Tripod collar not included?

  • why is image stabilization referred to in "stops". Like supposedly you can go down 4 stops in your shutter speed with the new IS... but it's completley dependent on the user. Someone with a shakey hand isn't going to be able to do that.. And someone with a very smooth hand can go like EIGHT STOPS. How do they come up with these figures?

  • FUCK THIS NERD

  • which lense would you recommend for shooting in sporthalls? the f2.8 or the f4 IS? just can afford the 2.8 IS.. :(

  • Has any1 mounted this lens (Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS II USM Lens) to a Panasonic Lumix GH2?
