Pros: Sharpness, construction, fast AF, usable in freehand

Cons: If I propose I have to find it, ff without multiplier could be short, but it always depends on what you want to photograph.

Opinion: Exceptional optics, bought for use in the release period of the Series II. Exceptional sharpness already at f2.8 but from the best of f4 af 10, I use it with extended canon extended 1,4II and I have to say that it behaves very well, although at f4 "it loses a bit of sharpness" ( But it's really good, but it's almost entirely f5,6.rnil bokeh is fantastic, contrasts with perfection with its sharp clarity, its use for naturalistic photography, tend to employ it between f5,6 and f8 allowing light but it is It's a real pity because it's fiddling between f2.8 and f4, ideal if you want to make close-ups of animals or if you're trying to get rid of the exaggerated background. This optic has always been presented as one of the best ever made by canon, and after Having tried the series II I can say it's really cool !!!! Obviously the new one is better in many respects, but if you do not use it for professional reasons, you do not even notice the difference.

Pros: Sharpness, blur, lower price between the big lens, well used freehand

Cons: Usually short (without tc) for wildlife photography.

Opinion: Considered the best super telephoto Canon as sharpness, until the advent of the next generation. I do not know whether it is the best but certainly not the fame is not misused. We can talk about problems flare (hood generous) or vignetting. The blur is pleasant and exceeded (probably) only by the 400 f2.8 due to the greater focus. But it is also a versatile lens: 1.4x tc with becomes a 420f4 and the 2x tc becomes a 600 f5.6 If the 1.4x tc you will not notice significant differences will nell'autofocus it in image quality with the 2x tc however the difference note: can also be used at full aperture even though I generally prefer close to f8, and the autofocus is affected by a lot of the doubler 2x (experience 40d and 7d). Usually I prefer to limit then the 1.4x tc, but if the situation requires it, I am not ashamed to use it 2x tc, nor to use the tc 1.4x combined with the 2x tc (but I recommend not to photograph the heron that see it every day ...). In only one case (young eagle in a shed while waiting) I used two tc 2x combinatthe assembly, and if the result is certainly a miracle is still in worthily Printable 20x30. Objectively speaking, the 300 is short for wildlife photography (500 f4 usually better), especially in Italy. But its versatility makes it still more than adequate, and if you can shorten the distance, it becomes super. I have no experience on sports photography that guess work very well. The new super telephoto out of which the first examples while writing promises to improve some aspects of this model image quality even higher is better autofocus speed with the new multipliers. The quality of the already consider surprising therefore is a welcome improvement but not strictly necessary, while the speed of autofocus (if the premises are observed) would increase the versatility and usability even with tc.
