This is an excellent mid level zoom lens for the enthusiast or cash strapped semi-professional who needs a decent zoom lens. I bought mine through Amazon Warehouse Deals in Like New condition for about half price, so I did really well price wise.
The Canon 70-300mm zoom lens is a good lens. It works as it's advertised to. Canon quality can't be beat. It's light enough so you don't get tired carrying it around all day. I highly recommend it.
The worlds best 70-300. This lens is amazing and will not let you down. Perfect for full frame or crop sensor Canon DSLRs. Great focal range for field sports such as rugby, soccer etc. The AF and stabilizer are awesome.
I have used this lens extensively over the past several years with 5D2 and 5D3 bodies. I am always amazed of the speed to focus and the beautiful image quality. It is a class act and fully lives up to it "L" pedigree. The only very minor negative is its weight which is slightly heavy.
excellent image quality; fast focus on a 5D3; built like a tank
slightly heavy
I was looking for a lens that could take shots of wildlife from a distance. This lens certainly fits the bill and the IS helps in low light. I was also looking at the 100-400mm lens but the negative comments about its barrel focusing system pushed me towards this one.
Consistent Output; Durable; Easily Interchangeable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Rugged; Strong Construction
Heavy; Poor in Low Light
I purchased this zoom lens from ZeeMo Digital at a very great price and it lived up to the expectations I envisioned.It was shipped out quickly and was also packaged nicely.
The Canon EF 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 DO IS USM ($1,399) is quite compact when you consider its zoom range and compatibility with full-frame cameras. Its DO designation refers to a design that incorporates diffractive optics, which helps keep the size down, but its image quality isn't up to snuff when compared with more traditional lens designs. If you're going to spend this much on a Canon telezoom, we recommend the EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM ($1,199.00 at Amazon) ; its telephoto range isn't quite as long, but your images will be noticeably crisper. The 70-300mm ($1,099.95 at Amazon) measures just 3.9 by 3.2 inches (HD) when set to the 70mm position, weighs 1.6 pounds, and supports 58mm front filters. It can focus to 4.6 feet, which is good enough for Canon to qualify it as a macro lens. But its maximum magnification is only 0.19x, just about one-fifth life size, so calling it a macro lens is a bit of a stretch, especially when you consider the distortion that it introduces to images wh...
The Canon EF 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 DO IS USM is a very compact telezoom for full-frame Canon SLRs, but its image quality is lacking.
Compact; Optically stabilized; Full-frame coverage
Pricey; Not that sharp; Lots of distortion when zoomed
When I purchased my 7D, I also picked this lens up for some wildlife and nature photography. With the cropped sensor, 300mm is close enough for animals that don't want to eat you... I'm impressed. Images are pretty sharp and colorful.
Image stabilized; Superior build quality; Super-sharp images
Slow Auto-Focus
