For a while I have wanted to complete my camera lens collection. I had the 10-135mm range covered beautifully by my Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM primary lens, and Tokina 10-17mm f3.5-4.5 AT-X 107 AF DX ultra-wide angle fisheye lens. All I needed was a telephoto. Before purchasing my Canon EF... Read full review »

Pros Good price, effective 3-stop reduction possible, Canon reliability.
Cons Focus often hunts, some softness, especially at 300mm end.

When buying a new SLR and building your lens collection from scratch, most people will look for a utility lens that covers thew range around the 28-90mm area and the short to long telephoto around the 70-300mm length. After that they might go for prime lenses of a length that suits a specific need... Read full review »

Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Lens for Canon EOS SLR Cameras Accessory Saver Essentials Bundle

This Kit Includes: 1- Canon EF EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Lens for Canon EOS SLR CamerasEF Brand New 1- 3 Piece Filter Kit Includes: UV, Circular Polarizer and Flourescent Filter and Hard Case 1- Lens Pen Cleaner Brush with Built-In Cleaning Spray Applicator More about this lens: Featuring the latest 3-stop Image Stabilizer for outstanding camera shake reduction, the EF 70-300mm f4-5.6 IS USM zoom lens also features super responsive autofocus. Replacing the popular EF 75-300mm f4-5.6 IS USM, the world's first interchangeable lens with Image Stabilizer (IS), the lens is expected to appeal to serious amateur nature and sports photographers looking to achieve outstanding results while shooting hand held. Image Stabilizer IS dramatically reduces image blur caused by camera shake. The EF 70-300mm f4-5.6 IS USM features Canon's latest 3-stop IS, a one-stop improvement over its predecessor. This allows shutter speeds up to three stops slower than would otherwise be possible, with no perceptible increase in image blur. Photographers normally shooting a 300mm frame handheld at 1/500 second can obtain the equivalent result with a shutter speed of just 1/60 second, vastly extending options in low-light conditions. Gyro sensors detect unwanted vibrations, triggering the corresponding movement of a correcting lens group perpendicular to the optical axis. This alters the light path, returning the image to its correct position on the sensor or film plane. Supplied Manufacturer Accessories in addition to mentioned above: Front & Rear Lens Caps.
