Canon 135mm F/2 L USM

 

Canon claims this lens as the fastest 135mm prime lens and we can't find a faster one available. So what use is a fast, short telephoto lens. We take a look.

Fast and silent Autofocus; Simple operation; Good optical quality with nice OOF ‘Bokeh

Unusual size filters

Sharpest lens out there.....

 

This lens excells in low light conditions, wether indoor for a basketball game or night soccer games. You can really freeze the action and capture the facial expressions of players across the field.

Consistent Output ; Durable ; Easily Interchangeable ; Fast / accurate auto-focus ; Lightweight ; Nice Bokeh ; Rugged ; Strong Construction

Sharp! Sharp! Sharp!

 

I bought this lens for indoor dog sports with pretty poor lighting. My EF70-200 IS 2.8L zoom was just not fast enough and I was getting too much noise at the higher ISOs with my 40D. Upgraded to the 5D2 and with this lens I can use ISO 3200 without...

Fast ; Sharp Focus
