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

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.

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.

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 image stabiliser is the reason I bought the zoom for wildlife,works a treat...

Item just as described. Very good value for money. Item well packed to ensure no damage during delivery.

This lens is exactly what I was expecting. The quality of the photos is excellent. The IS works as advertised. I highly reccomend it. If you can't afford Canon's L glass, try this one. It's light and compact, and makes a perfect walk-around lens.

Excellent for mid range photography. Annoying noise on autofocus reflecting in video mode.

faster ; quick focus .Excellent for mid range photography

jerking noise on focus and while video capture

I bought this for a Canon EOS 750D and is a great compromise over buying separate lenses. It's not too heavy and has a lock to prevent movement when pointing up or down. Initial results are excellent and I'm looking forward to testing more of its features.

I bought this because I do a bit of "birding" and I wanted a long lens. The non "L" version was a bit disappointing. This is substantially bulkier, and heavier but oh my, it is terrific!

Sharp as a tack; good fast focusing

Big; heavy; (compared to non L version
