A telephoto lens makes subjects appear closer than they actually are, which is great for when you can’t get close to your subject. This has an artistic purpose as well as a usability one, as it makes the seperation between subject and background clearer.
A Canon telephoto lens offers the creativity you expect from modern telephoto lenses, with wide maximum apertures allowing for daytime through to low-light use, perfect for wildlife and sports photography.
