I've upgraded to a 75-300L lens so this 75-300IS is for sale
It comes with the original packaging, a lens hood, a 55mm UV filter, and a lens cap lanyard.
It's a great lens! Light-weight, compact. Fast, ultrasonic micro-motor autofocus. Very effective image stabilisation (normal and panning modes). Reasonably wide aperture. Finally, and surprisingly good image quality, much better than expected for a relatively cheap zoom lens.
The lens reviewers PhotoZone said, "So, in terms of optical quality, the EF 70-300mm IS can be almost described as a hidden Canon L lens."
The 35mm equivalent zoom range is approximately 100 - 450mm. Quite a range! A good complement to the 17-85 or 18-55 kit lenses.
Great for taking head and shoulder or full-face portraits at the shorter end of the range, with nice background blur. Image stabilisation is very good and helps a lot when hand-held.
This lens is still in mint condition now because it was only used occasionally. I mostly ended up using if for long-range snapshots, school assemblies, sports days and the occasional landscape. It's always been stored in a dry area. It's never been dropped and lovingly kept clean. Has been professionally cleaned once.
Note that this lens is designed to work on both APS-C and full-frame EF mount Canon cameras. On full-frame cameras it is a very effective general purpose portrait lens.
If you want more reach than the kit lens provides with your 450-600D, 7D, 60D etc, this is a great way to go!
Leave me a comment with how I can contact you for more details.
