Canon EF 70 200 f/2.8 IS II - Is it worth buying 14 years after relase? 

Thanks for making this - I am looking at getting this lens used for my R8 for indoor sports photography. I can't bring myself to buy the RF version for 3x the cost!

Love my mkii it’s a beast!!! Using it for soccer and it will take a lot….of money…….😅 to get me to switch to RF version of the 70-200

picked up 1 yesterday ... Fabulous lens

I’ve own that lens for about 6 years now and I’m about to upgrade from an 80D to an R10 and wanted to hear some opinions about this combo (Ef to RF mirrorless) Thank you for your review!!

For years now I use the non-IS version of this lens. It's really great and gives so good images!

Bought mine in around 2011, when it came out. Used it on many sport occasions with 60D, it was always awesome and pleasure to use. I will never sell it.

Dreaming with one... It's on my bucket list for one day

I'm still using 70-200 f/4 IS from 2006 and it's still great, but sometimes autofocus is a bit slow. I'm thinking about buying f/2.8 IS III unfortunately it's too expensive for me atm.

I got this lens for $1999 back then. It was $2499 lens. I love the internal zoom. I still got this lens and no plan to get rid of it. I don't mind the weight and size at all.

Bought one yesterday!

I have this and it’s so heavy!! I use it with my dslr & I even bought it new so I wish I used it more😭

I have this lens and find it handy, however I'm not super impressed with the IQ of my copy. Generally, I'll use a prime, particularly for action shots 📸

I was just looking at getting this second hand!

I bought this lens trying to get into sports photography, I have my first game next week. I have it attached to the canon m50 mII, you think thats good enough? was planning to save up and get a 1dx but the first one, i can get that around like 700, but I dont know where I should go with it, because I think I def need a DSLR attached with this lens because sports photography is what I want to focus on. Also good video, gotta new sub, never know when I would need to shoot a wedding day haha!

This lens is GOAT'd

Its an absolute must! AFTER you have your prime set in place. All zoom lenses are soft at every focal length including the new RF version. This is a great sports photography lens but not ideal for portrait work.

The 70 200 f2.8 i is even shaper than the human eye. I made super sharp fotos with even a 8mp camera and this lens.
