Canon EF 300mm f/4 L IS USM Lens
The Canon EF 300mm f/4 L IS USM Lens is another excellent lens in the Canon L Series . While it has enough focal length to feel long, this very-well-built lens remains relatively small and light. Image quality from the 300 f/4 L IS lens is excellent.

I bought this lens as I needed more pulling power than my 70-200 f2.8L IS could give me. Initially I was surprised how compact and lightweight it was. It is no bigger than the 70-200 f2.8 and it is noticeably lighter too.
Pros:
- Lightweight
- Portable
- Built in lens hood
- Great image quality
- Fast AF
- 2 mode IS
- Pro build quality
- Good manual focus ring
- 77mm filter thread
- Reasonable price
- Good with 1.4x extender
- Comes with good quality case and tripod collar
Cons:
- 1st generation IS
- No weatherproofing
- Only available in white (not good for wildlife - or muggers!

Best Bang for you $$
This lens is as sharp as a tack without the added weight of it's big brother, the f2.8 version. When you are carrying a load of equipment on your back you'll be glad you have the 300mm f4.0 instead of the heavy ones.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Easily Interchangeable
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Lightweight
- Rugged
- Strong Construction
