Shoot handheld like never-before-possible with a 400mm

The EF 400mm f/2.8L IS III is the lightest 400mm f/2.8 lens in the world, and features an advanced five-stop Image Stabiliser, making hand-held shooting a reality. Three stabilisation modes suit various shooting applications and include standard single-shot mode, a panning-optimised mode, and a mode that only activates the Image Stabiliser during the exposure.

Focus quickly & accurately

Subjects come into critical focus with exceptional speed and precision, even in low light. Fast moving objects are kept sharp by employing a ring-type Ultrasonic Motor (USM), along with optimized focusing algorithms and a high-speed CPU. Extremely quiet autofocus operation makes the Canon EF 400mm III the perfect discreet companion in the bush when capturing wildlife.

Shoot with smart controls

Fingertip controls let you start/lock AF or recall a pre-programmed focusing distance. All without taking the camera from your eye.

Built to travel. Built to last.

As an L-series lens, the EF 400mm f/2.8L IS III is built to exacting standards. It’s sealed against dust and moisture and can withstand the rigours of professional use in the bush or on the sports field.
