Product details

With this Supertele lens the world comes a little closer. The powerful 4-stage image stabilizer and compact, lightweight design allows you to take shots you never thought possible.
Whether you're on a safari or airplane watching, the telephoto focal length allows you to capture distant subjects in full frame and detail. The 4-step image stabilizer enables super-sharp telephoto shots and smooth, free-hand video recording. Thanks to the RF bayonet, the F11 aperture and the DO (Diffractive Optics) optics, the lens weighs only approx. 1,260g and has a length of only 281.8 mm when transported. An STM motor provides smooth, quiet AF, and the lens control ring allows intuitive time/aperture/ISO adjustment. The slatless F11 aperture allows a comfortable bokeh. The super telephoto lens with powerful image stabiliser and AF is ideal for photo enthusiasts who like to travel with light equipment.

The 800 works with a fixed aperture 11, which makes the very reasonable price of 1050 euros possible. Just under 1.3 kilograms is also a word.
