This is my best upgrade from old EF version to the new RF mount. It is extremely lightweight and small than previous gen bulky design. Sharp and fast focus. You can not go wrong with this product. It is pricey though.
It is must to have.

Ever since I got into photography, I have lusted after the 70-200 f/2.8 IS but could never afford it. I've finally gotten to the point where I can afford it, and have decided to get the RF mount and go mirrorless. The fact that it can fit so much easier in my bag vs the EF mount is huge. The quality is OUTSTANDING. This thing is just a beauty, and it shoots great images. The best thing to do in photography is invest in good glass. They will hold value better over the long haul and travel with you to different camera bodies. Highly recommend!

Love this lens. Lighter and shorter than my older EF model and it fits into my camera bags much better. Highly recommend this lens for all professional photographers.

I bought this lens in store about a year ago. I am a sports photographer and this is my go to lens for all indoor sports. It’s a top quality lens with fantastic images. Best Buy is a great source for high quality Canon equipment

Amazing lens and shooting at 200mm and f/2.8 will get you blown out backgrounds on portraits like you wouldn’t believe! However, I don’t need that kind of reach often and shooting at 200mm makes it hard to communicate with subjects. But it’s a great lens and works great for events, and shooting at a distance where you can’t get close. I have concerns that the design might suck dust into the lens, but 6+ months of moderate use and no internal dust yet.

The lens is absolutely amazing. I have it on my camera body more than my RF 28-70. It’s light, compact, sharp, and looks great. Gave me an extra space in my bag now that I can place it standing up.
Only downfall is the lens tripod support gets in the way when zooming in and the turn of the zoom is a lot more than the old EF version.
Definitely recommend it, but had a bad experience with Best Buy and their shipping. Absolutely horrible... showed up in a box twice it’s size with very very little cushion. The lens box had to have been flying around inside during transport. Disappointed

My whole time favorite lens. Being a wedding photographer, glass is always important. The 70-200mm is my all time favorite lens. After making the switch to mirrorless I used my 70-200 EF for awhile, but the size and weight of it made me take the leap for the rf version. Being shorter and lighter than the ef version i am super glad i made the switch. Its not a cheap upgrade, but i am sure happy i made it.

This is an awesome lens. I came from Nikon, tried this lens with my new R5, just amazing. I took this on my cruise trip to the Bahamas, onboard the ship every professional photographer was interested to know which lens this is and how small it is for a 70-200 range (mostly they have seen and used the EF version). It's every photographer's dream lens to own. Every photo that I have captured is crisp, sharp and the AF works flawlessly.

Shockingly epensive, but absolutely worth it. I was reluctant to spend so much on one lens, even with a holiday discount, but I'm so glad I did. I've been using it about a month and I think it's my favorite lens purchase ever! I didn't think I'd like the extending barrel, but it's great. Saves space in the bag and locks in place if I choose. Comes with tripod collar but haven't really needed it, even in low light. Very impressive sharpness, as sharp as any prime I've tried. I had extremely high expectations when I ordered this lens, and I looked for a reason to not keep it. I can honestly say I couldn't find one! I've used the older EF 70-200 2.8s and I really liked them, but the RF blows them all away. All I can say is, get one if you can. If it stands the test of time like Canon's L line usually does, it's a worthwhile investment and lots of fun!

I was hesitant to buy this lens because it costs so much, but have been nothing but pleased with it. It is quick, it is crystal clear, and it has opened up all sorts of creative possibilities that I never was never even expecting. This lens stays on my camera about 2/3s of the time ever since I picked it up. I am more than happy with this lens, and I hope to have it for years to come.
