Canon announced the development of two all-new telephoto lenses for use with EOS SLR camera system: the EF800mm f/5.6L IS USM and the EF200mm f/2L IS USM. The prototypes will exhibited at PhotoPlus Expo in New York City, October 18 to 20.

The new Canon EF200mm f/2L IS USM and EF800mm f/5.6L IS USM,\ both incorporates a Image Stabilization system, feature special optical materials such as fluorite to correct chromatic aberrations to achieve high-resolution, high-contrast images.

The Canon EF200mm f/2L IS USM is an ideal lens for portraiture and indoor sports photography, due to a large aperture of f/2. The EF800mm f/5.6L IS USM is being developed in response to requests of sports and news photographers who are looking for a high-performance lens with a long focal length.
