In-lens image stabilizer design benefits \ _
Improve your framing accuracyl
Blurry viewfinder images lead to framing errors, so you can inadvertently cut off important details,
especially when using a telephoto zoom lens. With Canon IS Lenses such framing errors are a thing
of the past. Canon's in-lens image stabilizers enable accurate framing when you fill the frame with
part of your subject. Since the viewfinder image is blur-free, you can check every detail and make
subtle framing adjustments.

Concentrate on precise focusingl
Focusing on part of your subject with pinpoint accuracy is hard if the viewfinder image is blurry.
Canon
IS Lenses clarify the viewfinder image and let you make the most of high-precision focusing.
For example, you can fine-tune
your images and use sophisticated techniques - such as focusing
on
your subject's eyes to defocus the cheeks and soften the skin tone.
