Fix the 100-300 mm f/4.5-5.6 USM Telephoto Zoom Lens to your Canon EOS (SLR) Digital Camera and capture high-quality close-up shots. This lightweight lens boasts a high-performance ring-type Ultrasonic motor and high AF speed ideal for shooting outdoor sports. It uses rear group focusing so the front elements never rotate during focusing, and also adds full-time manual focusing capability. With quick and quiet auto-focusing, the EF 100-300 mm zoom lens is suitable for subjects that require the versatility of telephoto zoom. Offering high optical performance, the lens facilitates focusing as close as 4.9 feet for versatile and easy subject selection. Why buy memory for your camera?

Light weight, versatile

"Since I use the lens with my EOS 20D to shoot photos for my natural history, pre-history, history and travel articles, I am pleased with the light weight and high versatility of the EF 100mm - 300mm lens. I can carry it comfortably, a real plus since I spend a lot of time in the field. See the attached photos for examples of the lens' versatility...." Read Full Review »

Ok lens

"Bought this lens used in -97. Had a few dents in the lens front element. Worked well for several years even drowned it along with my Eos 5 (analog camera) in the beginning of -98. Worked well for another 9 years. As mentioned by the other users it´s a bit slow in low light situations and has trouble focusing accuratly. After all a descent lens for around 200 dollars.

"Our studio has both the EF 100-300mm f/4.5-5.6 USM and the EF 75-300mm f/4.0-5.6 III USM. Both lenses get constant use on set and on location. The slight lack of zoom is insignificant compared to the smoothness and speed of focus when using "one shot" center dot focus with "spot" metering. This lens …" Read Full Review »

"This lens is old - it came out in early 90s and has been quietly seated in Canon's lens lineup ever since. It has excellent Ultrasonic and Internal focusing - so it's fast in good light.

At a certain point in your life, you may have a hard time justifying the purchase of a top-tier product - a …" Read Full Review »
