Fastest 135mm telephoto lens in its class / 2 UD-glass elements correct secondary spectrum / Compatible with Extender EF 1.4x II and 2x II
Amazon.com Product Description
Although the Canon EF 135mm f2 L USM lens has completely automatic focusing capabilities, you can still take advantage of its manual focus function, even while the camera is in AF mode. The two UD glass elements help to correct residual chromatic aberrations, giving your images outstanding sharpness and color. This lens is great for shooting under low-light situations such as indoor sporting events or portraits where you want a blurred background. The EF 135mm f2 L USM lens is compatible with extender 1.4x and 2x; these can increase your camera's focal length to 189mm f2.8 with extender 1.4x or 270mm f4 with extender 2x while still using the AF function.

Sharp! Sharp! Sharp! Did I mention sharp?!?!.......2007-12-21
Wow! This lens is sharp! It has amazing boken and contrast as well. I have some very nice lenses but this blows them away by far. You can't beat primes. I purchased this mostly as a portrait lens, but I think I'll be finding many more uses for it. It's very well made, as are all L lenses. It came with the hood and bag which is always a plus.
Best lens for indoor sports.......2007-12-20
I needed a lens to use for indoor canine sports where a relatively long focal length was needed, and flash out of the question. This lens does the job and does it superbly! You get nice reach (add a 1.4x tele-extender if you need even more) and those wide apertures that are essential for indoors in low light. I also have a 70-200mm f/2.8 L lens and that just wasn't fast enough to handle these fast indoor sports. This gives me the speed I need and delivers great sharpness and lovely bokeh as well. The size is comfortable to hold and the autofocus fast and accurate. If you need to shoot sports, concerts, dance or music recitals, theater, etc. anything indoors where flash is forbidden, this is the lens you will need!
This is one bad mofo........2007-12-13
Holy crap is this an amazing lens. I mean it's incontrovertibly obvious right out of the box. No getting used to this lens needed. It's just a bad boy. My new favorite lens; I'm looking for any opportunity to use it even though it is a 135mm which is usually not a person's primary focal length for daily use. I have not found any issues with this lens. If I do I will come back and update as I always do. Actually, I don't like the hood. You have to take it off to take the lens cap off. O.K., there is a con. The plastic hood isn't up to snuff. Darn. O.K., I gotta go now and find more things to squeeze into this focal length.
Bokeh, Bokeh, Bokeh oh how I love thee!!.......2007-11-16
Pros:
Sharp, really sharp
Nice smooth manual focus ring
Super fast right on the money auto focus
Bokeh, Bokeh, Bokeh oh how I love thee!!
Bokeh, Bokeh, I just had to say it again!!!!!
Stealth: Nice small black and un-noticed even with the hood
Cons:
No zoom
No stabilization
No room for focus error at F/2
Photo contrast a little lighter than my 70-200 F2.8 L Lens
Background:
I purchased this 135mm F/2L lens to supplement my favorite portrait lens so far the excellent Canon 70-200 2.8 L. I love to do distant portraits at: weddings, renaissance festivals, air shows, public events, etc. and wanted the absolute best lens I could afford for this. Plus I wanted that 2/3 F stop advantage the 135 gives for dark church interiors where weddings always seem to take place and flash units are not welcome.
Test description:
First thing I did was test shoot against my 70-200 mounted on a tripod zoomed to 135mm with mirror lockup and remote cable release manual mode 1/125 s at F2.8 ISO 100 early in the morning. I pointed the camera at an identical spot in the shade of a neighbors trees and in less then 60 seconds (as fast as I could change lens) fired one round though each lens and went back into the house to compare.
Test Conclusions:
This and several dozen test shots later in the day back to back at different settings led me to the following conclusions. The 135mm has by far better Bokeh, buttery smooth the kind I used to dream about. The 70-200 by comparison is acceptable but at F2.8 leaves little rings around each item and noticeable backgrounds where at the same F stop the 135mm leaves a smooth non-distracting background. I tested at different F stops and the 135mm is always pleasing. The 135mm is way sharper at the same F stops then the 70-200, no shock there. And I believe the 135mm to be sharper at F2 then the 70-200 at any F stop especially in the corners. But, what I was surprised to find out is the 70-200 F2.8 zoom had slightly better and more pleasing contrast. I messed around with the pictures style settings and found it was about -1 saturation compared to the 70-200. So by making a custom picture style on my Canon Rebel XTi for the 135mm lens and saving the saturation as +1 the photos look about the same from both when it comes to saturation which leaves me with less work to do when editing the photos after the shoot if I am shooting JPEG only. If RAW I can adjust to my taste as needed anyway.
Thoughts:
Some people will no doubt criticize my including no zoom and no stabilization in the Con area above and say you knew that when you bought the lens. I will probably get used to the fact it has no zoom but I swear I must have reached up to the lens at least a dozen times in the first hour of playing with it and tried to turn the focus ring to zoom. A zoom can sure spoil you. But, the 135mm is worth all the trouble of a higher saturation setting and no zoom to get that beautiful creamy buttery smooth just right Bokeh.
Really Cool 3D POP Effect:
Another reason I purchased this lens is I saw several photos taken at F2 where there was this weird really cool looking strange 3D pop effect! I found out you can make that effect on command again and again and again. I am addicted to it. Just photograph a person standing out there far enough away where you get their entire body in the photo with the lens at F2. And Bingo 3D pop effect! I tried it on the 70-200 and although at F2.8 it will do a little it seems as though there is a lot of difference between F2.8 and F2 as even on the 135mm the effect is almost gone at F2.8 compared to F2.
Stealth:
I carried the lens around work today and shot some candid photos. The Canon 135mm F2 is: nice, small, black and un-noticed even with the hood. One friend was even a little surprised to find out it wasn't my 17-40. If you want to take portraits without being noticed this lens is far better then the 70-200 F2.8 zoom even though it has no zoom. Carry the 70-200 F2.8 around and people think you are part of the press corps and are looking for the news truck. The 135mms small size (just slightly longer then a 17-40 F4 L) and black color make it look more like a wide angle lens. Point the 70-200 at people and they sometimes take offense and it's very obvious they know that they are being photographed, point the 135mm at people and they don't seem to mind.
Conclusion:
Like has been said before, if you want the best prime portrait lens currently made by Canon then click purchase and enjoy the Bokeh. If however you find yourself locked into a position when shooting and have to zoom in and out and really want to impress people then you might want to get one of the Canon 70 -200 zooms instead. I'm going with both.
I'll post updates in coming weeks as I use this lens.
Outstanding.......2007-11-02
I own the Canon 100mm f2.8 Macro, Canon 24-105mm f4L, and the Canon 70-200mm f2.8L lenses. The Canon 135mm f2L blows them all away. If there is such a thing as a perfect lens, this its it. Images are clear, sharp, beautiful bohek, and they pop. At f2.0 it is as good as any other lens I use -- at 2.8 and above it is unmatched. I would find it hard to believe there is a better quality lens. If you buy this lens, you will not be dissapointed other than with the other lenses in your bag.
