pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: For the price, not a bad lens.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author andgott - If you have a Canon Digital SLR, and just the kit lens that it came with, there is no doubt that you will sometime find yourself wishing that you had more zoom. Face it- That 18-55 that the camera came with just doesn't get you up close- where you really...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: Canon EF 75-300mm f4-5.6 III - Decent Starter Telephoto... But Not Much More Beyond That

Sat, 26 Jan 2008 19:59:17 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author soupcraze - As I was looking into getting a nice mid-range telephoto lens for myself, I borrowed a low-end Canon EF 75-300mm f4-5.6 III lens. This is the lowest-end variant of Canon's consumer level 75-300mm market. The version I used was the non-USM variant...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: Fair Value For The Price Range

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author digitalduck - This is a good quality family use lens. If photographing the kids on a swing, or the pooch chasing a stick, or even the deer snacking in your garden - you can capture life happening! This is a good walk around every day lens. At the 75mm range, the...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: The hidden gem of the Zuiko Digital line!

Mon, 17 Jul 2006 13:08:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rfman - Continuing my review series of Olympus Zuiko Digital lenses for the Four Thirds system digital cameras, I’ve chosen to review the ZD 35mm macro lens. This lens is part of the “budget” range of lenses, and is currently the only lens capable...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: Get the IS version if you can afford it--not the best of Canon's offerings

Thu, 7 Apr 2005 10:47:08 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author suemccartin - I bought this lens at the same time I bought my digital rebel body because I wanted a somewhat long zoom for shooting the tigers at busch gardens (from several hundred feet up on the bridge). For what I wanted it for, 300mm just isn't quite enough even...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: A solid higher-end consumer lens

Wed, 9 Mar 2005 17:27:31 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author huntzinger - Its always hard to get the perfect lens. Especially if you don't want to spend a ton of money. In the "ton of money" catagory, you have Canon's "L" lens series. Generally, the prices start at $1000 and go up from there. Even if you do have the...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: Not Canon's best...but still a decent lens.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mffan310 - A couple of months ago, I bought a Canon 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III lens for my Elan 7E to introduce myself to telephoto photography. Since then, I've taken hundreds of shots with this lens on both my Elan 7E and my Digital Rebel. (Don't forget to read my...

Fri, 16 Apr 2004 17:00:51 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author slayek - I bought this one used in like new condition from Bay. Slapped the lens to my Elan 7 body, and boy, this is slow. USM is not ring type, so it's very slow. If you want to save money get the one without USM. Picture quality is acceptable at 100-200mm...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: Lens reliability - possible design error?

Tue, 23 Mar 2004 05:06:45 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author hunor_demeter - Both my Cannon lenses suffered the following problem after 3 year of use: the zooming gets blocked, focusing does not always work. A screw fell out inside the lens, blocking mechanical elements. My lenses: Cannon EF 28-135 IS/USM Cannon EF 75-300...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: Good for the price.

Tue, 16 Sep 2003 22:10:08 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author lv_designer - This is a good quality, entry-level camera lens which provides a wide zoom range. I purchased it along with my EOS 10D, and after shelling out the $$$ for the camera, my budget limited me to lower-priced lenses to begin with. The lens has produced so...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author boerewors - History:

I have always been fascinated shooting wildlife (animal and human) in their natural habitat (My favorite: a trip to Kruger National Park, South Africa). This sometimes requires an extremely steady hand and/or a really fast shutter...

Thu, 7 Sep 2000 15:20:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shazzle99 - If you haven’t heard, I like to take pictures. Let me rephrase that. I’m hopelessly, utterly, pathetically obsessed with photography. The addiction began when I was just a small child, who stole my parents’ camera and went hog-wild at the zoo. My...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: the inexpensive alternative

Sun, 2 Jul 2000 15:22:19 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author MrPatate - The 75-300 does the job and that's all. It has no features that make you say WOW!

Construction: poor... It has a "cheap" feeling. The rings are not tight, so the controls are not precise. You can hear some pieces ratteling when you...

Mon, 19 Jun 2000 20:05:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author soulgrind1 - This lens was very cheap, and very nice addition to my gear. I bought the lens for a little under $200 through an internet retailer. The 75-300 range is very useful in many situations including close-ups and portraits.

I want to stress...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: Expensive, yet still a bargain!

Tue, 13 Jun 2000 01:52:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author LaBruja - This lens had barely hit the "streets" when I first tried to buy it. Advance publicity had made it such a hot item that it was unavailable for weeks. By that time cooler, more sensible minds had convinced me I shouldn't purchase it. I bought a...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: Buy with image stabilization, or buy a super-zoom

Wed, 10 May 2000 23:03:25 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author northrup - I bought this lens when I was new to photography, and it was *not* a good choice. It was inexpensive, but it has some real drawbacks. It's cheaply made. The zoom creeps out when the camera points down. The front element rotates when focusing. Poor...

pr-Telephoto EF 75 300mm f 4 5 6 Canon 6272A002: Bringing the Action Up Close

Fri, 28 Apr 2000 18:00:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author cchan006 - After purchasing the original Canon EOS Rebel second-hand few years ago, I realized that the 35-80mm lens that came with the camera did not have enough magnification to bring auto racing actions up close. So I decided to start shopping for a zoom lens. I...
