Classic design with good results
The Canon 75-300mm lens has seen many versions and is an old design but it is still going after these years. Why? Well, it offers decent image quality in a relatively light and compact form, has a metal mount, is well constructed and is surprisingly cheap, especially second hand. Of course if you compare it to more recent, more expensive zooms with fancy lens elements, it will not seem as good. But if this bothers you, you will either have the money to buy them, or sigh and admit that this old budget lens is the best option available. All older designs of the 75-300 or 70-300 tend to be less sharp at 300mm, and this Canon lens is no exception. But I got perfectly good shots of a robin singing in a tree at 300mm. No doubt a better lens would have given me a touch more clarity. But...the price/quality ratio of this lens is just fine. The main down for it is it has no image stabilisation. I will let you into a secret; if you want to freeze the movement of say a bird, what you need is a really fast shutter speed. If you shoot a bird with your IS lens at 1/125th of a second, it won't be sharp because the subject will have moved during the exposure. IS does not make the world stand still. So the claims for the importance of IS are overstated. If you want a lens with IS on a budget the Canon 55-250 is just the job; it does not go to 300mm however, it has a plastic lens mount and is entirely made of cheap plastic. So I would rather have this venerable 75-300mm lens which is in my comfort zone financially and which usually delivers excellent results.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Good value but you will want to upgrade
Not the best lens, but good value for the money as a starter option. Not for serious users but a good tool to learn on. Better than spending 4 times as much on some serious kit if you are unsure about your wish to get hooked on this hobbyVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

Excellent Zoom lens
Totally pleased with the lens, works as it should and a "must have" for any photographer. Quick change and easy to clean. Learn to use it manually too for those custom effects shots. AF is fast and accurate. Nice addition to my trio (18-75mm and 500mm mirror plus filters). Look after it and it will perform spot on. Cheers.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Fast and quiet AF
Lovely lens, focuses smoothly, swiftly and silently. Compatible even with my 99-00s ELAN 7S.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Decent lens
The 75-300 gets some bad press and generally it is down to the lack of IS. The lens has AF which on my model needed a bit of encouragement coming back to life but now works fast and relatively quiet, though nowhere near silent. I can produce great photos easily upto 200mm but beyond that this lens would benefit from the missing IS to compensate for movement, however increasing the shutter speed compensates well. I recommend this lens for anyone looking for 200mm+ on a budget, it is a great entry telephoto lens.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Liberated by the family!
So good I no longer have it, my granddaughter has found a home for it. Not rated particularly highly but for the average to middling photographer it's a good basic lens no no obvious distortions etc. I will probably get another one.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Excellent product at a competitive price.
Perfect - very good image quality for the price and a very useful focal length range that will nicely complement most general purpose zoom lenses.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
