Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras

التعليق

When I first got this lens I really didnt know what I was doing but wanted a telephoto zoom lens. After years of practice and bettering my skills, its one of my favorite lenses. It isnt an L-series lens but for the price, its still capable of high-quality results as the pictures Ive attached show. All of those images were shot in RAW and taken with a Canon 5D Mark II. The picture of the moon was cropped and zoomed in.

I am not a professional. I am just a mom. 99% of the photos I take are of my children. Before purchasing this lens, I only had the kit lens and one prime lens. I wanted a lens that would allow me to zoom in a bit so that I could snap photos of my children playing without having to be right up on them. This is the perfect lens for that. I shot my sons first Little League game this past weekend while I was in the stands and he was in the outfield. I got some of the most excellent shots showing his true emotions, because he wasnt posing. he didnt see me right up on him taking photos. I cant afford a $1,000-2,000 lens so this was the perfect price and I have gotten tons of compliments on the shots. I even shot most of them on manual using the sports setting (I have a Canon Rebel). A lot of them were taken through a little hole in the fence.

I personally do a bit of school photography as a freelance in college and this lens does wonders when I need to take pictures of athletes on the court I have used it indoor and outdoor and gotten some amazing results it just requires figuring out the proper distancing you need between the subject and catching focus. Its great for sports and Ive enjoyed mine for almost a year now doing basketball, volleyball, soccer, and this year I will be working on baseball and swim. Overall review 10/10 for me so far this is my go to lens until I find a upgrade.

This is the CHEAP kit lens...This is the WORST lens Canon has ever produced...I dont know why they decided it was a good idea to subject their customers to this awful lens...Mine has failed after a short time and is now a paper weight...It never did get sharp photos...Focus motor is loud and slow. If you try to manually turn the tell barrel it is not smooth.It is sticky and choppy...Dont be tempted by the low price...Its cheap for a reason...DO NOT BUY THIS LENS...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

Ive been using my 75-300 for a couple years now and have had zero problems with it. I shoot for newspapers, so my equipment gets a real workout under (sometimes) lousy conditions. I shoot in the rain, snow, dust, smoke (when Im covering fires) and pretty much every weather imaginable. This lens -- while not exactly on a par with some of those big, white monsters you see the sports journalists using -- is probably more than most casual shooters will ever need. And the price is certainly nice.

I was very disappointed in the reviews, and I had decided not to purchase this lens, but then I read the review by John Nolley II. After reading his review, I purchased it. I have had it for a few days now, and I am very happy with it. I have not found any focus problems. It acts exactly like my Canon 55-250mm Telephoto lens. Most of my shots (about 99%) are Nature and Landscape. Every now and then I photograph my grandchildren playing sports. My first test of the lens was shooting birds in my backyard. They do not sit still very long, so I was constantly focusing and refocusing, and it was fast enough for me. I see no difference at all with the operation of this lens and my Canon 55-250mm. The only thing it does lack is Image Stabilization. I found myself turning the Image Stabilized button off for most shots with my 55-250mm, and I always use a tripod anyway, so it is not needed for me. Thank you John, I would not have purchased this lens had it not been for your review. By the way, I was able to sell my used 55-250mm on ebay for $107 minus $9 shipping & insurance costs (sold in a few hours), so I figure this lens cost me about $30.oo Net! I absolutely love this lens.

This was an open box item from Amazon Warehouse Deals. Ive bought items with a used status from Amazon Warehouse before and took a chance on this. Lens works perfectly, they repacked it well and Im happy that I took the chance. 80% off other advertised prices, can t beat the price.

I have recently purchased a T4i and this lens as an add on for it. It was within my limited budget and I was worried that I would regret the lack of image stabilization. I do not. This lens takes amazing canon lens quality photos. I would have some remarkable images of squirrels but I forgot to put the SD card in. Baring that, I do live near a small airport, and have some great pictures of pilots in their planes. They came out amazing from over 1/2 a mile away I was able to read the numbers on the side of the plane. Also bird pictures are very sharp. I photographed a woodpecker about 35 away and was able to crop out a very detailed and sharp image of his head. The contrast of colors is very good. I have not tried the lens at night, and this may be where I wished I had the shelled out the extra money for the IS version. But my night vision aint what it used to be so if I cant see its there to begin with I dont know to zoom in on it. This lens is well worth the money spent. For a beginner you cant beat the price or value it has when it comes to familiarizing yourself with the camera. I feel this was a great investment. It works terrific during the day and I have some amazing photos of my boys playing baseball that were previously impossible with point and click cameras.

My wife was impressed and I thought I did a good job researching and picking it. Takes great pictures. A tripod is a must for this lens because it will be blurry if you try to focus and hold it steady. I am not a photographer, I just like taking pictures. I went on a few sites and found Amazon had the best price by far. Good luck. This is a good quality lens and it totally blew the wife away. Looks like I spent big bucks when I didnt. The only reason I didnt give it 5 stars was because the zoom lens has its limitations. You cant see as far as I would have like to. I see the birds clearly from across the yard which is about 180 feet from one end to the other. I wish I could see further but every lens has its limitations. I really cant complain because it does what it says and furthermore it is my wifes toy now. I will now have to get my own which will probably be a bit stronger power but I say get it for the beginner if thats what you do. You will always be able to sell it or trade it for something larger when that time comes and you outgrow it. I dont know technical specs, I just know how to point and shoot. Anybody who can assist me with it can send me a email. I appreciate your help. G

This is a cheap lens and it does a good job for the price. The autofocus is noisy and when zoomed in really far it shakes the lens quite a bit. Because the aperture only opens to 4.0/f you need really good light or youll get a lot of noise in your photos. Honestly, though, I like this lens a lot. I use it to take photos of the moon and it is fantastic.
