An incomparable F2.8 telephoto zoom\n\nConstant F2.8 70-200mm zoom with extraordinary G Master resolution and bokeh.\n\nAn F2.8 telephoto zoom like no other\nG Master design and technology in a new constant F2.8 telephoto zoom that offers unsurpassed rendering, blazing AF, and extraordinary image stabilization performance.\n\nExtraordinary detail and bokeh in one lens\nAn XA (extreme aspherical) element with 0.01 micron surface precision contributes to previously unachievable resolution and stunning bokeh for new expressive potential.\n\nNatural images without spurious colour\nFour ED and two Super ED glass elements suppress chromatic aberration for maximum resolution and natural colour without bleeding throughout every image at all focal lengths.\n\nClass-leading close-up performance\nMinimum focusing distance is 0.96m, for up to 0.25x magnification. A floating focus mechanism minimizes distortion and aberration that normally limit close-up performance.\n\nFast AF optimized for stills and video\nAdvanced double-linear and ring SSM (Super Sonic wave Motor) actuators provide the precision and power required for both still and video AF in this full-size, heavy lens.\n\nLens Configuration\nG Master series lenses take imaging and expression to previously unattainable levels with a stunning blend of extremely high resolution and softly dissolving background bokeh.
