The Canon EF 70–200mm f/2.8L IS III USM is a full-frame EF-mount telephoto zoom from Canon’s L-series. For the UK market, Canon identifies the lens as part number 3044C005. The 70–200 mm focal range and constant f/2.8 maximum aperture make it suitable for subjects that benefit from consistent exposure and depth-of-field control across the zoom range, including events, sport, portraits and general telephoto work.Autofocus is driven by a ring-type USM system, with full-time manual focus override for fine adjustment without leaving AF operation. The built-in optical Image Stabilizer is rated by Canon at up to 3.5 stops of correction. Minimum focusing distance is approximately 1.2 m and maximum magnification is about 0.21x. The aperture closes to f/32 and the diaphragm uses eight blades.The lens is designed for full-frame Canon EF cameras and can also be used on compatible Canon APS-C EF-mount bodies with the expected narrower angle of view. Protective seals are used to resist dust and moisture, while fluorine coatings on the front and rear elements aid cleaning. The front filter thread is 77 mm.Canon specifies dimensions of approximately 88.8 mm maximum diameter by 199 mm length and a weight of about 1,480 g. The white L-series barrel includes a tripod collar. The UK package includes the ET-87 lens hood and LZ1326 lens case. These physical details refer to the lens itself rather than shipping dimensions.Buyer note: This row uses UK part number 3044C005. The same ASIN can appear on other regional marketplaces with part number 3044C002, so regional part numbers should not be interchanged when matching stock.

The Canon EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM is a full-frame EF-mount portrait prime from Canon’s L-series. Its 85 mm focal length and unusually bright f/1.2 maximum aperture are designed for strong subject isolation, shallow depth of field and available-light work. The lens also works on Canon APS-C EF-mount DSLR bodies, where the narrower field of view gives a more telephoto framing, but its optical image circle is designed for full-frame coverage.The optical formula uses 8 elements in 7 groups and includes a large aspherical element within Canon’s floating focusing system. Autofocus is driven by a ring-type USM motor and full-time manual focus override is supported. The diaphragm uses eight blades, the minimum aperture is f/16, and the closest focusing distance is approximately 0.95 m. Maximum magnification is approximately 0.11x.There is no optical Image Stabilizer in this lens; the product name is EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM rather than an IS model. The front accepts 72 mm filters. Canon lists dimensions of approximately 91.5 mm maximum diameter by 84 mm length and a weight of about 1,025 g, reflecting the large f/1.2 optical design and L-series construction.The standard matching accessories include the ES-79 II lens hood and LP1219 lens case together with front and rear caps. This is the second-generation “II” version and must not be mixed with the earlier EF 85mm f/1.2L USM. Its principal compatibility requirement is a Canon EF mount; mirrorless RF bodies require a suitable EF-to-RF adapter.Buyer note: This row is the North American part number 1056B002 associated with this ASIN. Do not replace it with the UK/EU 1056B005 part number even though the commercial lens model and core optical specifications are the same.

The Samyang 85mm F1.4 AS IF UMC represented by part number 1111202101 is the Canon EF-M version of this manual-focus portrait prime. Mount identification is critical because Samyang produced the same optical family for several camera systems. This version attaches directly to Canon EOS M-series mirrorless cameras and is therefore intended for Canon’s APS-C EF-M system. On an APS-C Canon body, the 85 mm focal length gives an angle of view similar to roughly 136 mm on 35 mm format.The lens has a bright f/1.4 maximum aperture for shallow depth of field and low-light work, with a minimum aperture of f/22. Its optical construction uses 9 elements in 7 groups and the diaphragm uses eight blades. UMC coating and the internal-focusing optical design are part of the AS IF UMC specification. Minimum focusing distance is approximately 1.0 m.This is a fully manual-focus lens: there is no autofocus motor and no optical image stabilisation. Focus is adjusted with the lens focusing ring, making careful manual focusing especially important when working near f/1.4. The Canon EF-M mount version should not be confused with Canon EF, Sony E, Fujifilm X or Micro Four Thirds versions, even when the focal length and optical design appear similar.The front filter thread is 72 mm. Approximate dimensions for the EF-M version are 78 mm in diameter by 100.6 mm in length, and weight is about 570 g. The lens is finished in black and is best classified as a manual portrait prime for APS-C mirrorless cameras rather than an autofocus Canon lens.Buyer note: MPN 1111202101 identifies the Canon EF-M mount variant. Compatibility should be checked against the camera mount before purchase; it is not a Canon EF DSLR-mount lens.

The Sony Planar T* 50mm F1.4 ZA SSM is a premium standard prime lens for Sony A-mount cameras. This European version is identified as SAL50F14Z.AE and is designed to cover the full 35 mm frame. Its 50 mm focal length gives a natural perspective on full-frame bodies, while APS-C A-mount cameras provide an angle of view comparable to approximately 75 mm. The large f/1.4 maximum aperture supports low-light shooting and shallow depth of field.The optical design uses 8 elements in 5 groups and carries the ZEISS Planar T* designation. Sony’s SSM ultrasonic focus drive provides autofocus on compatible A-mount bodies, with manual focusing also available. The diaphragm uses nine blades with a circular-aperture design. Minimum aperture is f/22, minimum focusing distance is 0.45 m, and maximum magnification is approximately 0.14x.This lens does not contain optical image stabilisation. Sony specifies SteadyShot as body-integrated for compatible A-mount cameras, so stabilisation capability depends on the camera body rather than the lens itself. The front filter thread is 72 mm. This distinction is important when comparing it with lenses that have their own optical stabiliser.The lens measures approximately 81 mm in maximum diameter and 71.5 mm in length, with a weight of about 518 g. Its black finish matches Sony Alpha A-mount bodies. The manufacturer’s listed box contents include the dedicated ALC-SH126 lens hood plus front and rear lens caps.Buyer note: This ASIN is the Sony A-mount SAL50F14Z.AE version. It is not a Sony E/FE-mount 50 mm lens and cannot be treated as an E-mount product solely because newer Sony cameras commonly use that system.
