EF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM is the longest telephoto lens among Canon's lineup, and a terrific choice for any long-distance application-outdoor sports, wildlife, news photojournalism, and so on. It's actually lighter than Canon's EF 600mm f/4L IS lens, weighing just under 10 lbs. It uses a refined optical design, with two fluorite lens elements, one UD element, and one Super-UD-glass element, for outstanding correction of color fringing and superb contrast and sharpness.

There aren't too many reviews for this (and not any recently) -- I guess there just aren't that many around. Anyhow, my wife gave this to me as a present last year. I really didn't think I had a need for it, but it sure is cool. Yes, you definitely need to use it with a tripod, and the narrow angle of view requires that you have your A-game for zeroing in your subject. But the results are indeed amazing. I don't get to use it often, but when I do, I'm SO glad I have it!
Resolution has always been my highest priority and this lens certainly is the best. The auto-focus features are superb. After using the 600mm f/4 L lens for years trading it in for the 800 was the best trade I've ever made. It is lighter, a longer focal length and the stabilizing features are excellent. Would recommend a gimbal tripod head, with one the system can be manipulated with ease.
I've been shooting this lens for approximately 18 months now. It's terrific. But. There is a learning curve with this. You don't just mount up a body, slap it on a gimbal and start taking tack sharp photos. Shooting at 800 takes some getting used to. Be that as it may, this is a great lens.
I finally got my 800mm after waiting for one to be built for me. 3 months wait, but it was worth it. I bought this lens to photograph eagles this upcoming winter, but have shot pics of the moon with a 2x and a 7d (2560mm), man what unbelievable pictures. With this set up, you can just barely get the whole moon in the shot. Craters and seas jump right out at you. I would strongly suggest a gimball head set up. I am using an Induro set up, and love it. My Monfrotto ball head would support it ok, but when you losen it up to move it, you better have a good grip on the lens. I am so impressed with the quickness of the autofocus on this lense with out the 2x. It is as fast as any of my other L series lenses, and I own quite a few, and faster than my older ones. All in all, if you are looking for a fantastic super telephoto with unbelievable quality and speed, this is the lens. You may have to trade your first born for it, but it might be worth it.
This lens is beyond impressive. From minimal shooting distances to long distance the resultant clarity and quality of the shots continues to amaze me.
I finally managed to purchase this lens after 28 years of wanting a big glass. I looked at many different lens's some much less expensive and decided to go for this big gun. So far i found that the clarity and use is top notch. My photos have gone from OK to WOW! I mainly shoot wildlife and this lens lets me get those close shots that are National Geo quality without harassing the animal! I really love that as I can shoot them in more natural positions and they stay put for more opportunities for that just right position. Heavy? 9.9lbs,plus the tripod and lens mount does push down on my shoulder, but it's relevant. I can carry it for miles and only complain a little about a sore shoulder the next day. I'll get some more padding to relieve that situation. Over all I have finally got my hands on the best lens out there! Love it!
I got this lens as a gift from my mother. It is the best gift ever. It is very heavy and you need a tripod to use with it. I tried using a mono-pod, but had better results/luck on a tripod. I am not sure Arnold Schwarzenegger could hand-hold this one for long, even in his youth! There is a learning curve and some adjusting to get used to it, but it is a great lens for wildlife. I was lucky and got this as a gift, but if you have the $$$, it is a great lens.
This lens is a dream come true. I shoot wildlife, often at a distance, and this lens is amazing. The lens is sharp as a tack and, when mounted on a gimbal head, very easy to handle. Auto Focus is super fast and quiet. Used a 2X converter and had great results. My first extensive use of the lens was in Yellowstone and Grand Teton this past November. We hit all kinds of weather and the lens never disappointed. All in all I got some of the best photographs of my life. This lens puts you right there.
I have used the 800 to shoot the worlds fastest motorcycles on the Bonneville Salt Flats. In five days I shoot over 7500 images. I hand hold the 800mm to shoot at 1/500 to 1/640 late in the day and use a mono-pod to rest it in between shots. Images of motorcycles going between 200 and 350 mph are crisp and the auot-focus is perfect for this type of work. I really enjoy working with this lens and would highly recomend this setup for anyone doing similar work.
I just purchased this lens a couple of weeks ago and I absolutely love it. I am finally able to photograph Red Tailed hawks at a respectful distance, whereas before with my 400mm, they almost always would fly away. The lens is heavy, but I was able to capture the attached coyote photo hand-held at 1/320s and the red tailed hawk with some stabilization on my car door(no edits, the exposures were created exclusively by the camera). I'm sure a tripod is ideal, but I usually like to drive around wildlife refuges and take photos(i.e. be "in the moment"), so I'm not sure a tripod lends as well to that style of photography. I am loving this lens and am determined to extract every penny from it!
