Canon EF 600mm f/4L IS II USM review
Featuring Fluorite optics that deliver sharper images with less chromatic
aberration, the new large-diameter EF 600mm f/4L IS II USM super telephoto
lens also takes advantage of magnesium and titanium construction for a
lighter weight and a Fluorine coating that keeps soiling, smears and
fingerprints to a minimum. Because image stabilization technology in super
telephoto lenses may inadvertently over-compensate and interfere with
composing and framing distant or moving subjects, the EF 600mm f/4L IS II
USM includes an advanced third Image Stabilization mode (Mode 3) that
activates IS only when the shutter button is fully pressed. This allows
users to pan fast-moving subjects and then activate IS only when it is
precisely required. Because all three IS modes give the equivalent effect
of up to four extra stops of performance, and because plus the Power Focus
mode enables smooth focus change when shooting video, the EF 600mm f/4L IS
II USM is ideal for capturing rapid-fire action. Other improvements such as
better dust- and waterproofing make the Canon EF 600mm f/4L IS II USM super
telephoto lens an ultra high-performance Digital Age tool combining Canon
hallmarks of superb ease-of-use with excellent durability.
