Canon
The Canon EF 500mm f/4L IS II USM is a super-telephoto prime lens designed for photographers who need significant reach for subjects like wildlife, sports, and aviation. Its 500mm focal length brings distant action up close, allowing for frame-filling shots without disturbing the subject. The f/4 aperture is fast for a lens of this focal length, providing excellent light-gathering capabilities and enabling the use of teleconverters with minimal loss of performance. The prime lens construction ensures high image quality, with sharpness and clarity from edge to edge. Super spectra coatings are applied to individual elements to minimize ghosting and flare for greater contrast and color neutrality when working in strong lighting conditions. This lens is an excellent choice for professional photographers, offering a powerful combination of reach, image quality, and performance. The fixed focal length encourages photographers to be more deliberate with their composition, leading to more impactful images.
