Canon 70-210mm f/4
Name: Canon calls this the Canon Zoom Lens EF 70-210mm f/4. EF means Electronic Focus, or that the focus motor is inside the lens. All modern Canon lenses focus with a motor in the lens.
Focal Length: 70-210mm. Used on a 1.3x camera it gives angles of view similar to what a 88-264mm lens would give on a 35mm film camera. On a 1.6x camera it gives angles of view similar to what a 114-340mm lens would give on a 35mm film camera. See also Crop Factor.
Maximum Aperture: f/4, constant.
Optics: 11 elements, 8 groups, one of which has been rumored to be a molded aspherical. This is a traditional push-pull zoom with front group focusing.
Diaphragm: 8 blades. Rounded up to f/8, octagonal from f/11 on. Stops down to f/32.
Filter Size: 58mm.
Close Focus: 3.9' (47" or 3' 11" or 1.2m) from the image plane (the back of the camera), measured.
Maximum Reproduction Ratio: 1:0.24
Infrared Focus Index? Yes, at 210, 135, 100 and 70mm.
Size (measured): 2.975" diameter x 5.423" extension from flange (75.57 x 137.75mm) at 70mm focused at infinity. The Canon 70-210mm f/4 gets longer as zoomed and focused.
Good News:
1.) Good Optics: Very sharp and few, if any, color fringes.
2.) Easy to zoom, slides in and out as if it's on ball bearings.
3.) Close focusing: 3.9 feet / 1.2m.
4.) Lightweight.
5.) Solid build quality.
6.) Constant f/4, a stop faster than any current inexpensive tele zoom at the long end.
Bad News:
1.) No Image Stabilization, critical for hand-held use.
2.) Manual focus requires a moving switch.
