Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens

This high-magnification zoom lens is the smallest and lightest in its class, offering ideal cost-performance. A lightweight glass material was used for the first element group – the heaviest group in the optical system – to reduce operational load during autofocus operation. Combined with the micro USM, the autofocus is quick and quiet. The slim exterior and smooth zooming makes this lens a delight to use.

  • Filter size: 58mm
  • Maximum aperture: f/4 - 5.6
  • With micro USM motor

    Product Description

    Product Description

    Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras.

    From the Manufacturer

    Capture the far-off action of fast-paced sports or zoom in for an intimate portrait with the Canon EF 75-300mm telephoto zoom lens. The optical system, construction, and exterior are the same as the EF 75-300 mm f/4-5.6 III USM’s. The difference is that it uses a DC motor instead of a USM to drive the AF. As with all Canon lens, this 75-300 model carries a one-year warranty.

    • Focal length: 75-300mm
    • Maximum aperture: 1:4-5.6
    • Lens construction: 13 elements in 9 groups
    • Diagonal angle of view: 32 (at 11 feet) to 8 degrees (at 15 feet)
    • Closest focusing distance: 4.9 feet
    • Zoom system: Rotating type
    • Filter size: 58mm
    • Dimensions: 2.8 inches in diameter, 4.8 inches long
    • Weight: 16.8 ounces The most affordable of Canonís long telephoto zooms, this lens is excellent for subjects from portraits to wildlife and nature. It shares the same 13-element optical system as the 75-300mm USM lens, but uses a DC motor for autofocus. Close-focusing down to 4.9 feet (1.5m) allows filling the frame (at 300mm) with a subject the size of a dollar bill, and itís compatible with the Canon 58mm Close-up lens 500D for even more spectacular shots of small objects.

      Isolate the Interesting Part
      The eye tends to see the whole rather than the individual parts. It also sees whatís near and not whatís far. By bringing attention to those things missed by the eye, you can create many interesting pictures. It could be the grimace of an athlete, the grill of a classic car, or a girl against a blurred background. Telephoto lenses can also compress images to give dramatic effects. You are limited only by your imagination.

    Overall, I really do like this lens. I travel a ton and love to take pictures of wildlife. The camera can take some pretty decent shots from far away, as long as you’re not too far away. It’s also not too heavy (still slightly heavy after awhile).

    The one con I’d say is the focus feature isn’t the best. Sometimes it struggles focusing on a moving object.

    I’m by no means a professional, this is just a hobby and chance to capture some memories, but I’d recommend the lens overall.

    Reviewed in Canada on October 3, 2023
    There was a tiny piece of dust that was inside the lens (visible on right side in pics) that I didn't notice until after I took my photos, but I had it replaced super quickly and easily which is great support, and the new one is perfect.

    This is a great beginner/budget zoom lens that is a big upgrade from the included kit lens on the Rebel T7. For the price, it does the job very well. The focal range covers a decent amount and I have only tested it at an air show, but it does make you work for the shot. Great value lens.

    Some drawbacks though is that there is no image stabilization, and the autofocus can be pretty slow and get confused especially on faster moving objects. I already expected those issues, since you get what you pay for, but for something that isn't the USM or higher end lenses it did way better than I thought it would. I had to use manual focus a fair bit so I missed some shots, but the ones I managed to get turned out way better than I expected.

    Overall for the price it is a great buy, especially if you plan on photographing slower/still subjects. For practice or casual/hobby photography this is a perfect starter for using telephoto/zoom lenses. I plan to try it on wildlife which may be easier than fast moving planes.
