Canon EF 75-300mm f4-5.6 III - Decent Starter Telephoto... But Not Much More Beyond That

Softness; Rotating Front Element; Cheap Build

Get the IS version if you can afford it--not the best of Canon's offerings
by suemccartin 2005-04-07T06:47:08.000-08:00
Pros:
good zoom range, light
Cons:
slooowwwww (high max aperature), no IS system.
The Bottom Line:
There are better choices. If you need high focal length a single lens may be a better choice. Not up to Canon's usual high standards.
Review:
I bought this lens at the same time I bought my digital rebel body because I wanted a somewhat long
