I have been using this lens since 2007 and I am still happy with the photos. The color, the sharpness, the focus and I love the fact that it has 2.8 aperture.
I use it on most of my commercial shoots and event shoots, as well as 90% of my studio photos.
The only problems I have had with it is that the rubber grip of the zoom came loose two years ago, but I fixed it with superglue (it might have been because of too much moisture, I was camping on the sea shore for some 10 days at the time).
Overall, it is a very good lens for its price, I highly recommend it!
All the best and happy shooting,
Sandra

Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM

Recommend? yes |

|
Pros:
|
Sharpness, solid build, IS works very well
|
Cons:
|
quite heavy and pricey. Very big especially with hood on
|
|
It is probably one of the best pro lenses out there. It is heavy but also perfectly sharp and the IS works very well.
I have to say it looks kinda scary with the hood on, but luckily you don't have to get so close to the subject with such a lens.
I strongly recommend it to those photographers who earn their living out of taking photos.
Cheers!
