The Canon EF 70-210mm f/4 is an EF-mount zoom telephoto lens designed for Canon digital and analog SLR cameras. Launched in the late 1980s, it stands out for its constant f/4 aperture across the entire focal range, a feature uncommon in zooms of that era, making it a versatile option for portrait, nature, and controlled-light event photography.
Key Features

- Constant maximum aperture f/4 throughout the zoom range, with a minimum aperture of f/32.
- Optical construction of 12 elements in 9 groups, including one low-dispersion element to reduce chromatic aberrations.
- Autofocus with a micromotor-type AF motor (non-USM), with manual focus ring available in MF mode.
- Minimum focusing distance of 1.2 meters, with a 58mm front filter thread.
- Approximate weight of 690 grams, with a sturdy metal barrel design and included tripod collar.

Perfect for advanced amateurs and professionals seeking a lightweight telephoto lens with a constant aperture for portraits, street photography, or travel. It is also an interesting option for collectors of classic Canon optics.
Condition
Second-hand product inspected by Camera Market. Includes a standard 6-month warranty and 24-48h shipping from Barcelona.
Is it compatible with my Canon camera?
This lens uses the Canon EF mount, so it is compatible with most Canon film and digital SLR cameras (except those with EF-S mount, which can also use it, but with a crop factor). To verify exact compatibility with your model, consult your camera's manual or the manufacturer's datasheet.
Does it have image stabilization?
No, this lens does not incorporate image stabilization. Being a 1987 design, it lacks this technology. For sharp results, it is recommended to use fast shutter speeds or a tripod, especially in low light conditions.
What type of photography is suitable for this lens?
Thanks to its focal range of 70-210 mm and constant f/4 aperture, it is suitable for portraits, nature photography, sports, or events, as long as there is good light. Its minimum focus distance of 1.2 m allows some versatility, but it is not a macro lens.
What does the Camera Market warranty include?
This second-hand lens has been inspected and comes with the Camera Market warranty, which can be 6, 12, or 24 months, depending on the chosen option. This covers possible functional defects, giving you security in your purchase.
