| • | Superb technology and ergonomics |
| | The EF 55-200 f/4.5-5.6 II USM is compact and lightweight, with 13 lens elements in 13 groups resulting in consistent image sharpness. It incorporates Ultra Sonic Motor (USM) technology and improved electronic circuitry to provide high-speed Auto-focus. Externally, the lens has an ergonomic rubber pattern zoom ring that's easy to grip, while its black body and distinctive markings match the design of the latest EOS cameras. |

| • | High-speed Auto-focus |
| | The EF 55-200 f/4.5-5.6 II USM's fast Auto-focus is the result of an improved AF drive pattern, a new type of Central Processing Unit (CPU) for faster communication, and a new AF algorithm. |
| | |
| • | Optimised lens coatings |
| | The EF 55-200 f/4.5-5.6 II USM's lens coatings have been optimised to minimise ghosting and flare – something that's more prone to occur with digital cameras than film cameras. The coatings reduce reflections off the rear of the lens to deliver crisp, undistorted digital images. |

| • | Lead-free glass optical system |
| | Only environment-friendly lead-free glass is used in the construction of the EF 55-200 f/4.5-5.6 II USM. |
