Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM II

Pros: Sharpness closing of 1 or 2 stop, build quality, weight, fast autofocus.

Cons: Sharpness at full aperture not excellent, incompatibility with teleconverters (but you already knew), the crowds hood price.

Opinion: Before this point I owned Tamron SP 70-300 and the first version of the Canon 70-300 USM is. Having to make a comparison with the two objectives mentioned above, this new Canon is clearly superior in terms of constructive and autofocus qulità. As for the stabilization, for the moment I can show what the new generation Canon surclassi the series I, but if you play it on equal terms with Tamron (maybe this reisce to even absent a more resistant to "shaking" Pelino). Coming to the sharpness, the Canon EF 70-300mm f / 4-5.6 IS USM II is not even remotely comparable to its predecessor (of course is much higher), while wide open, if the play on par with Tamron up to 200mm. Even at 300mm to TA, this new Canon fits a step above the cheapest Tamron. The real superiority of this view, however, it is seen closing of one / two stops: in this case, the sharpness is also decidedly superior to Tamorn, especially in focal lengths from 135 to 300mm. Another thing for which questa lens is preferable to the license plate Tamron competition is the absence of distortion (really problematic defect in the latter) and the substantial absence of chromatic aberration. The only sore point is the lens hood: the optics that will just come out and then there was (so far) real competition on this accessory, but € 180 for a lens hood (Price Amazon in March 2017) seem to me in a bit exaggerated (just a wire).
