The 400mm f/4.0 DO IS USM is Canon's breakthrough in multi-layer diffractive optical lens technology. This sheds new ground for sports, nature and wildlife photographers, giving exemplary results in a size previously unheard of for a lens of such a focal length and aperture. Simply put, the size and ease of handling must be seen to be understood.

• Flourite & UD elements eliminate secondary spectrum chromatic aberration
• High-diffraction optics provide class-leading low size and weight
• AF Stop function shuts off autofocus when an obstruction appears
• Dust & moisture resistance made exceptional by magnesium alloy lens barrel and new rear gasket at lens mount
• Two-stage image stabilization; dual-axis camera shake correction or vertical axis only(for panning)
• 3-stage focus limiter
• Focus preset function allows for returning to a specifically set focus by turning a ring in front of the focus ring
• Full-time manual focus override
