Recommended Applications
*Recommendations are based only on the features necessary to perform the application successfully and do not take into account the relative image quality of different lenses
Wildlife Scenic photography
Wider, more scenic wildlife shots need anything from 70-300mm in focal length depending on how close you are the particular scene. Singling out individual animals usually requires more powerful telephoto. In telephoto, camera-shake is more problematic and stabilization is very important. Fast ultrasonic focusing is important in capturing fleeting moments.
Technologies
EX (EX Lens)
The exterior of this lens is EX-finished to denote the superior build and optical quality, and to enhance its appearance.
