This is really nice lens. It is easy to mount on the camera, and to focus quickly and accurately.
Great lens! I've gotten closeup shots of bees on flowers from feet away that were almost as good as a macro. Good enough range for sports, or wildlife too
this is my second lens that I buy, the first one my daughter took it because of the great photos she took while using it, the second I have for the very same reason. this lens is great and i will recommend it to all. A++++++
This is a great budget lens. Pictures are amazingly clear and sharp in both manual and auto focus. I use it both indoor and outdoor and mostly for sports photography - my kids do swim and hockey.
I bought this to replace a 19 year old similar lens from another manufacturer that finally began having intermittent communication issues with the camera. The new lens is smaller, lighter and focuses much faster than the old one. It's also a lot quieter when focusing. A big plus is that it uses filters the same diameter as two other lenses I already use, making the load I have to carry around a lot lighter.
For the price range you can complain. Definately not an indoor lens (with low light). Great for sunny, outdoor shooting. Park, zoo, great lens. I normally run manual mode when I shoot. Slow shooting in auto mode (not so slow that you will miss the shot). Pros: -Inexpensive -Good sharpness -Good Color -Awesome Zoom -Decent Focus (In Auto Mode) Cons: -No Image Stability (IS) -Not the greatest in lowlight (Not many zoom lenses are) -Cheap Build I do recommend if you want the extra zoom and are shooting outdoors.
You can create fantastic photos with this lens. It is very, very limited in what it can do from a technical standpoint, but it will let you take shots you couldn't otherwise get without a telephoto. Just because some snooty photog thinks you need a $1000 IS L series to take a picture of a squirrel in a tree, does not mean you should sell your house for camera equipment. Shenanigans. If you are an amateur, and can't spend $1000, buy this, and use a tripod. When you reach the limits of the abilities of your equipment, then consider the upgrade. This is not useful as a macro lens, and you will not be pointing it downward for long periods of time. The lens creep shouldn't affect you. Spend money on the lens you use most. This is not likely to be it. This is a fine entry-level lens. Not only that, but if you hate it within 90 days... Just to prove I'm not being a complete smart-alec, I slapped this lens on a 20D body and shot this squirrel through my bedroom window. And that's a jpeg compressed to 130kb...
It has its pros and cons. It doesn't self adjusted so you are constantly adjusting trying to get a good picture which is hard when taking pictures of sports
This lens suffers from price point selling. People want a long lens but are unwilling to pay for the quality ones. Enter the 75-300mm f/4-5.6. This lens is very cheap and it shows. I feels plasticky. The zoom and focus rings aren't really damped, so it feels cheap. The lens suffers badly from lens creep. if you are aiming at a downward angle the front of the lens slides out and you lose focus quickly. Lastly, it needs very bright light to get a sharp photo. It is f/4 only at 75 and for most of its range it is at f/5.6. Uses: sports maybe, but only in the middle of the day. Never indoors, never at dusk or dawn unless you have a very steady tripod, end even then ut must be level or your shots can still come out a little fuzzy from the lens creep. It's very similar to my brother's old Minolta of the same length, and that was made in the 1960s. Canon has known quality control issues, especially with certain low end products (but not always! They had some issues with the latest professional models cameras just last year). The one I tried might just be a particularly egregious example. Do yourself a favor, get the 70-300 IS at least. It's worth the extra money, and less aggravation. Or even the 70-200 f/4 L
Placed order on 12/27. The package is bouncing around with DHL, never been recieved by the post office. Walmart CS was no help at all, told me to just keep waiting. I have tried to call the seller but kept getting a google voice message. Seems pretty scammy.
