The Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM was introduced in October 2005 to replaced the old Canon 75-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM . Although superficially, this lens looks very similar to the 75-300mm that it replaced, optically and functionally, this is a totally new lens, completely surpasses the old lens...

In September of 1995, Canon introduced a revolutionary new lens, the EF 75-300/4-5.6 IS USM. The revolutionary aspect of this lens was the incorporation of an optical image stabilizer system which allowed the lens to be hand held at shutter speeds two stops slower than could be done with a...

Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM: The Long & The Short Of It
Canon offers five different 70-300mm zoom lenses in its product lineup. Why so many? They obviously think this is a popular and practical focal length range and I happen to agree. I even own one of them myself-the EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM-but the EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM tested is the mac daddy...

[REVIEW-CANON LENS EF 70–300mm f4–5.6 IS USM]
This medium telephoto zoom is one of a number of lenses that Canon make in the 70–200, 300mm range. It is middling in price and performance, ideal for anyone looking for a good lens for occasional use.
Pros:
- This is a sweet and smooth lens in use
- Auto focus is fast enough and the feel of zoom and focus controls is good
- It is light enough to carry around without getting a pain in the neck, yet not so light that there are worries about durability
Cons:
- There is slight barrel distortion at the wide end – nothing to worry about in field use – and slightly more pincushion at the 300mm end
- It is easy enough to correct in Photoshop

Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 L IS USM
When we first saw the new Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 L IS USM lens, we thought it just looked like a standard 70-300mm lens with a white overcoat on. After using the lens for some time, we're blown away by the image clarity, sharpness, build quality and speed of focusing.

REVIEW: Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM Lens Review
Handling and features Canon have given the 70-300mm range an L-series makeover and as a result this lens sports silent autofocus, with full-time manual override, weather sealing, optical stabilisation and tougher build quality than you might normally find on a lens covering this range.

At ￡432 the Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM lens should come with a lens hood, but it doesn't. However, it does come with a soft case to protect against scuffs and scrapes and features an Ultra-low dispersion (UD) element and Super Spectra coatings to help reduce fringeing, ghosting and flare.
