The unparalleled quality offered by the DIGISUPER Series by Canon has made it 
a permanent fixture at sporting events around the world and a heavy favorite of 
professional camera operators.
As one of Canon’s leading lens series for broadcast use, the DIGISUPER line has  
introduced numerous technological innovations while capturing memorable scenes 
with the best possible quality, so that they may be enjoyed by future generations.
Amid the rapid growth in high-definition program production in recent years, 
Canon has maintained a strong relationship with content producers, to ensure 
that our products continue to satisfy the needs of such a dynamic industry. A 
common refrain has been to make field lenses wider and with higher magnification 
to convey the intensity and dynamism of the scene at hand, as well as to make our 
image stabilization feature more high-performance in order to film elegant video 
footage free of blurring.
Our answer to these needs is the new XJ80x8.8B. This next-generation Premium 
Field lens successfully offers both enhanced width and higher magnification by 
bringing together the very best of the technology Canon has developed over 
the last half-century, and also incorporates a more advanced version of Canon’s 
reputed image stabilization feature as a standard function.

XJ80x8.8B 8.8-710mm 1:1.7
Main Features
Simultaneously offers a maximum wide angle of 
8.8mm and a high magnifi cation of 80x for wider 
and longer-distance shooting.
The XJ80x8.8B is capable of a maximum wide angle of 8.8mm (57.2° 
perpendicular angle of view), which is approximately 5% wider than 
previous long-zoom lenses. This enables the lens to pull back and fully 
capture the scene even in limited space, and also capture images that 
exhibit a stunning degree of intensity.
With high magnifi cation boasting a zoom factor of 80x, the XJ80x8.8B 
allows any and all scenes, from a panoramic view of a stadium to the 
detailed expressions on players, to be taken with a single lens.
Incorporates an advanced image stabilizer, a formidable 
ally of cameramen everywhere for mitigating vibration 
of all kinds, as a standard function.
The image stabilizer feature by Canon has been faithfully used over the 
years at many of the world’s highest-profi le sporting events, and is now 
considered a must when shooting sports. With the XJ80x8.8B, a more 
advanced version of Canon’s image stabilizer has been incorporated as 
a standard feature.
With a new sensor and sped-up control circuit, this latest version of the 
image stabilizer significantly curbs vibration, particularly in the high-
frequency range. By successfully suppressing all kinds of vibration, 
such as that generated by wind and excited fans in the stands, the 
XJ80x8.8B’s image stabilizer allows the capture of stable, clear video 
even at super-telephoto range. It also makes camerawork a comfortable 
endeavor by largely mitigating the “aftershock” phenomenon that occurs 
when an image moves after the camera operator stops panning.
