Every aspect of the SP 70-200mm F/2.8 G2 inspires confidence, providing high image quality and enhanced bokeh throughout. With up to 5 stops of VC (Vibration Compensation) optical stabilization too this lens is leading the way. Optical design features include XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) and LD (Low Dispersion) glass to eliminate chromatic aberrations across the entire zoom range, ensuring optimum resolution. eBAND Coating designed exclusively for this new zoom offers superior anti- reflection properties, greatly minimizing flare and ghosting. And refined bokeh provides spectacular background effects from nearly any angle.
