EF 400mm f/5.6L USM
400mm lenses are some of the most commonly used lenses for international sporting events such as the Olympics. These super telephoto lenses deliver shots which are both photogenic and have strong visual impact, such as a close-up of the focused concentration of a runner’s expression on the starting line, or just the right way to frame the colour and texture of a far-off mountaintop. 400mm lenses have an even more powerful compression effect than 300mm lenses, putting the subject and the background right next to each other, as it were, creating more tension in the composition of the photograph. This allows the photographer to bring immediacy to shots of wild animals and birds, which are generally difficult to photograph from up close, or the driving force of an F1 racecar as it comes around a corner. This is a high-performance 400mm super telephoto lens featuring an extremely light and compact design ideal for photographers requiring high mobility and portability. The optical system incorporates one element made of Super UD glass and one element made of standard UD glass, thus effectively correcting colour aberration and delivering extremely sharp, high-contrast imaging performance. Other features that ensure convenient operation include a built-in hood, a removable ring-type tripod mount, and a focus range selector that allows the user to select the full 3.5m/11.5ft.-to-infinity distance range or restrict the range to 8.5m/27.9ft.- to-infinity.
