For along time now the Canon 200mm 1.8 lenses has been one of the most sought after lenses of Canon photographers. The image quality is heralded as one of if not the best in the canon line up. Some might speculate this is because the lens was discontinued in 2004 and therefore everyone wanted what they could not easily have. Canon recently introduce its replacement in the form of a newly designed 200mm 2.0 lens now with image stabilization. The new version is available for $5,999.00 which will continue to likely drive the price of the old version us which can typically be found for around $3,500 to $4,200 on the web and eBay. This lens has found a great niche among photographers that do portrait work for its very shallow depth of field and for indoor sporting events where flash is not practical or often not even allowed.
