Best of all, the USM version shares many of the same features that makes the non-USM lens so popular, such as a compact size, a close focusing range, and accessory compatibility. As with all Canon lenses, this unit carries a one-year warranty. Focal length: 75-300mm Maximum aperture: 1:4.5-5.6 Lens construction: 13 elements in 9 groups Diagonal angle of view: 32 degrees (at 11 feet) to 8 degrees (at 15 feet) Focus adjustment: Front group rotating extension system with (more…)

    Diamond in the rough.
    Lens is made of plastic instead of metal, so the operation is rough and sticky, instead of smooth and free.

    Good lens but not what I needed
    This is a good lens but, with the built-in zoom on my camera, I didn’t really need it. It may just be that I need more experience with cameras and lenses before going for…

    Works as designed.
    It’s a great lens
    , and the USM motors really do help you focus a lot faster, but still not quite as fast as the smaller lenses.

    So-so

    Canon EF 75-300mm
    Great beginner lens for the price. I wasn’t able to pay the extra $$ for the IS model. Would recommend if you are on a budget.
