No lens data for the 200mm f2.8 in DPP?

Just bought the 200mm f2.8 L lens and am unable to see any 200mm prime lenses in DPP, am I missing something?

You're right, that lens isn't on the list. I suspect that Canon makes some kind of determination regarding how much benefit a lens needs from the optimizer and how many of the lenses are out there in use.

 

For instance, while the new STM kit lenses are supported in this way, the EF-S 60mm f/2.8 macro is not. Either because it wouldn't really benefit from it or there aren't a lot of them out there in use. 

 

The lens aberration correction tool does many of the same things and works with all identifiable Canon lenses.
