This lightweight and compact lens adds versatility to your camera's field of view and is great for capturing sports and wildlife from a safe distance.

F/4-5.6 Aperture

There's no limit to your creativity with the Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens. Its aperture of f/4-5.6 makes it easy to throw backgrounds out of focus and maintain clarity of the subject for a beautiful bokeh special effect.

USM

While other lenses in its class operate using noisy drive trains, the Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens takes an alternative route. Piezoelectric ceramic elements that create tiny electronic vibrations makes this lens quiet and fast.

Image Stabilizer (IS)

The Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens feature an Image Stabilizer system that helps you achieve better photo and video results. This feature significantly compensates for camera movement that often occurs in handheld photography, ensuring clearer detail in unfavorable light environments.

UD Lens

At the core of the EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM Telephoto Zoom lens is an optical construction of 12 groups with a total of 17 glass elements. The inclusion of a strategically placed Ultra Low Dispersion (UD) lens corrects chromatic aberrations that show up in images as a colored halo around subjects. It also reduces color blurring to maintain the images overall detail from edge to edge.

Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens SKU: 0571C002

Rated 5 out of 5 by Caleb Maier from A very good lens for the price. The only downfall is that it takes a long time to adjust without automatic focus. (probably because of the wide range) but other than that it is a amazing lens; the quality is amazing, and the mm is prefect to reach close-up birds.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Teacherbytes from Still Going Strong After Years of Service I bought this lens years ago with an 80D and used it for wildlife and sports. Earlier this year, I switched to an R6 Mark II, and this lens is the only EF lens I kept because it is still a quality piece of glass. I am still using it for sports and now landscape photography. I have no plans to replace it unless it quits working.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mad M from So far so good! I haven't used the lens just yet, but the fit, finish seems to be on par with my other Canon lenses.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Mahjong NJ from Newer sometimes IS better! A very nice lens that I got about two months ago. I compared it to my old 70-200 L lens (over 12 years old) and I must say the quality of the photos are pretty much the same (when outdoors). Indoors we got a problem, because this lens only does f/5.6 at max zoom, so that is not much light. But when outdoors?! This lens is wonderful! [1] Very light weight [2] Affordable [3] SUPER fast and quiet focusing [4] Easy-to-use stabilization [5] only slight chromatic aberration

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jmboy from Nice Excellent lens when 600mm is too extreme for the mid range grouping

Rated 5 out of 5 by Commish from Fantastic Lens Only L options in this zoom range are extremely heavy (and white). Not a fan of the colour or weight. Waited for this lens to be in stock and ordered. Used for a recent trip to Hawaii. Unbelievable picture quality and focus speed. Absolutely no noise during focus. Again, the quality and colour of the pictures are unreal. For the money, lower weight, and non stand out colour, this lens is worth every penny and then some. Truly impressed!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Dave C from Great new 70-300 tele-zoom Great all-around tele-zoom, and sharp. Not as bright to focus with as my 300 2.8, but it’s a lot smaller and lighter for everyday shots. A versatile addition to my gear. Easy to use, the fastest autofocus I’ve seen. No tripod collar, but this lens is so easy to handle, and with IS, it doesn’t need one. Bought this lens to supplement, not replace any other lenses, feel like I got a lot for the price.
