Lens canon ef 200mm f2.8 l ii usm đánh giá năm 2024
The Canon EF 200mm F2.8L II USM is a high-quality telephoto prime lens, compatible with Canon's full-frame and APS-C DSLRs. It's a great choice for enthusiasts, proving excellent image quality in a relatively lightweight, portable package. There are two main limitations though - this lens does not feature image stabilization, and although build-quality is up to normal Canon L-series standards, you don't get the same weather-sealing that is built into most newer L lenses. If you have the cash, Canon's EF 70-200mm F2.8L IS II USM is a better choice from the point of view of versatility, but the 200mm prime wins on cost and portability. Show In the review, I will call the lens CANON LENS EF 200mm 1: 2.8 L II ULTRASONIC for short - Canon 200/2.8L II.

and similar third-party Canon EF mount lenses, by type Sigma 70-200/2.8 DG OS HSM S or Tamron 70-200/2.8 Di SP VC USD G2. Of the significant shortcomings of the Canon 200 / 2.8 L II, one can only single out the lack of a stabilizer, however, for some modern mirrorless cameras of the series Canon EOS it's not critical at all.

Canon 200/2.8 L II is an upgrade from an older version Canon 200 / 2.8 L. Both versions of the Canon 200 / 2.8 EF are based on the same optical design and have few significant differences.

One of the subtle advantages of telephoto lenses with a maximum aperture of 1:2.8 is the ability to easily pair them with teleconverters. Canon 200/2.8 L II works great with original 1.4X and 2X teleconverters. Canon Lens EF 200mm 1:2.8 L II Ultrasonic AssemblyThe Canon 200/2.8 L II is well built. This is an L-series lens, and therefore almost everything is done at the highest level. Externally, the lens is very similar to its peers - Canon 135 / 2 L. The Canon 200/2.8 L II can use the CANON ET-83BII plastic bayonet hood, which fits into the grooves on the lens barrel. The lens hood can be installed in the opposite direction for convenience during transportation, in this state access to the focus ring is lost. On the inside of the hood there is a fabric coating. From the side of the rear lens, the insides of the case are covered with a special dust-catching cloth.

Canon Lens EF 200mm 1:2.8 L II Ultrasonic FocusingCanon 200 / 2.8 L II uses an ultrasonic focus motor Canon USM (Ultrasonic) and focuses quickly (closer to 'very fast'). Focusing is quite quiet, but the hum from the focus motor will be clearly audible during movie shooting using the camera's built-in microphone. On camera Canon EOS-1 Ds Mark II with advanced 47-point focusing module (7 crosswise) I had no problems with accuracy and tenacity of focus. During focusing, the front and rear lenses remain stationary - the lens uses internal focus. It is possible to use any filters without problems. The minimum focusing distance is only 150 cm, while you can shoot with magnification 1:6.25. Canon 200 / 2.8 L II has a window with a distance scale in meters and feet. There is a label for working in the infrared spectrum and a depth of field scale (but only for F / 32). In manual focus mode, the ring rotates approximately 135 degrees (3/8 of a full turn), when reaching the extreme positions it does not rest, but continues to slide without affecting focusing. There is a switch on the lens barrel that is responsible for the focus operation mode - 'AF / MF' (automatic / manual focus). Canon 200/2.8 L II has focus distance limiter:
During manual focusing, the limiter does not work. Canon continuous manual focus control supported in 'AF' mode FTM (Full Time Manual Focusing), which implies that you can rotate the focus ring at any time. The intricacies of working with the FTM mode are described in detail in the review. Canon Zoom Lens EF 24-105mm 1: 4 L IS USM. Focus Features:

Canon Lens EF 200mm 1:2.8 L II Ultrasonic My experienceI really love these lenses. For a long time I used similar Nikon 180mm 1: 2.8 ED AF Nikkor MKIII and was very happy. But class 70-200/2.8 lenses, and even with a stabilizer, captivate with their greater versatility. The Canon 200/2.8 L II makes sense only when you need 200mm focal length. In general, it will be better than zooms of the 70-200 / 2.8 class at a value of 200 / 2.8, but with latest models 70-200/2.8 the difference at 200 / 2.8 will not be so significant as to give up a more convenient set of focal lengths and a stabilizer. Shooting with the Canon 200/2.8 L II is a pleasure. Canon 200 / 2.8 L II is much more convenient and technologically advanced than a similar Nikon 180mm 1: 2.8D ED AF Nikkor MKIV. I should note that neither Canon 200/2.8 L II (1996) nor Nikon 180/2.8D ED AF MKIV (1994) have not been further developed. Most likely they were really absorbed by bright zoom lenses. Of the modern 200 / 2.8 class lenses, only SMC Pentax-DA* 200mm 1:2.8 ED [IF] SDM, announced in 2008. In some situations, Canon 200 / 2.8 L II can be an excellent addition to portrait fixes Canon 135 / 2 L, Canon 85/1.4 IS L и Canon 85/1.2L II.
