Happy I purchased the lens
I've used the product to photograph landscape and some wildlife. The Canon 70-300L works very well on both my Canon 5D2 and my Canon 50D. the only problem is that you can't zoom with the lens shade reversed.
Pros:
- Quaility product
- Fast focusing
Cons:
- Too expensive
- Heavy

Top quality, sharp, superb build
A fantastic lens. Everything you would expect from a L series lens. I have now taken around 3,000 photos using this lens on a 500D, mainly of kids playing sport. The focal length range is ideal. The build quality is great, it is as good today as when it came out of the box. Solid construction.
Pros:
- Easy to use
- Build quality

Purchased 70-300L for use on my 7D for daylight field sports, and most importantly, to carry while when traveling. Processed (in Lightroom & NIK Suite) images from the 7D + 70-300L compare very favorably with those from my 5D MkII + 70-200L MkII.
Pros:
- Compact
- Light weight
- Fast auto focus (with both full and panning modes)
- Full time manual focus
- Very sharp images
- Responds well to micro focus adjustment
Cons:
- Cost, but then again it has 'L' build quality and performance
- Lens collar is both expensive and (currently) unavailable

Amazing Lens and great photos
Love using this lens. It really has increased my overall use of my DSLR. I am able to take photos from a distance and really capture a natural shot since I don't have to be close to the object. Overall I am very happy with this lens. Would recommend to any starter using a DSLR.
Pros:
- Durable
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Heavy

Great overlooked lens
"In this zoom range there are many lenses to compare and it wasn't an easy decision. For me it came down to this lens or the 70-200 f/4 L IS USM and after trying both in the store I went with the 70-300 .

For an amazing telephoto zoom, with terrific image quality and amazing build quality, look no further than the all around performer that is the Canon 70-300L
Pros:

- Stunning image quality
- Fast and accurate AF
- Rock solid IS
Cons:
- Canon doesn't provide a tripod collar with the lens

Canon -EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6
The image shown is of Canon -EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L lens and not Canon -EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 so don't be confused like i was when i received the lens.Its a bit heavy using a tripod would b good and the lens becomes useless in low-light. Over-all its a good lens for a beginner with a good zoom.

An affordable alternative.
This is definitely a high quality lens, not as slow as it says on paper, image quality maintains high even at max zoom with lots of details. Unless you are shooting high speed events, I see no need for L lenses, this will work for me just fine, I mean, more than just fine!
