This EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM Lens from Canon offers high resolution, superb contrast, neutral color balance, and Canon′s original built-in Optical Image Stabilization for compensation against blur caused by camera movement.

This dual-mode image stabilizer is suitable for panning shots as well as stationary subjects. With full-time manual focus, one-touch zooming with a wide grip, a focus range limiter and a special ring that permits adjustment of zooming tension, this is a lens that′s extremely easy to use, and ideal for a wide variety of applications including nature, wildlife, sports, and documentary photography.
