The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.  | sent on November 16, 2021 Pros: All for the price! Unreachable if you don't need an L series. Cons: Nothing at all, maybe just the first hook of the stabilizer. Opinion: Reluctant to make reviews... but here it is a must. Now someone will ling me but... surpasses in image quality the smooth white 70-200L f4! I confirm it as I had it and overused it but on APS-C it suffered from the complexity of the lenses. Especially at night and with very marked reflections. QUi we are instead on FF 5D mkii goes great. On 7D this lens is sewn. It has only a slight drop at the edges that in reality I can say that it is minimal and that it is also the fault of the refraction-cleaning of the air when on APS-C it reaches 480mm. A small flaw (always for the price of the lens) perhaps only the first hook of the stabilizer. A Tamron equal focal the stabilizer starts immediately... Here it has a micro lag before you decide whether to correct vertically or orrizanthally. But when he takes (Anyway right away) it's like having a tripod. 4 safe stops. 480mm at 1/60 holds up very well. So if you don't have to stress the lens and use it as a pro L (born to be smunti) is for you. If you need safety, tropicalization, metal,... etc... then go to L series. For the rest I repeat for myself that I have had many lenses and for the major L series it is unattainable for price performance. Found used at 300e with warranty I have not yet removed it from the 7D for 1 year. I had the bianchino that I was moltipliavo with extender 1,4mkII but ... we are not even far away. The 2xII idem... DeIffrazione, drop on 5Dmkii and 1dsmkii. Then promoted to safe grade 9. |
  | sent on October 27, 2020 Pros: Sharpness, blurry thanks to the 9 slats, contained chromatic aberrations, stunning focus, f4 from 70 to 75mm, lock button, data display, protective glass in the bayonet, compactness, robustness and design. Great value for money. Cons: Not tropicalized, slightly soft and with some aberration around f4 and 70mm, but it is not even considered a counter to the price at which it is sold, and perhaps the stabilizer, good but not great, at least my specimen does not reach 4 stops. Opinion: Lens with excellent value for money, compact and light, which despite the focal opening does not excel promises sharp photos and always in focus. Not tropicalized but with protective glass in the bayonet. Yield quite constant from 70 to 300mm, even at the edges. I use it on APS-C for birdlife, planes, sports, 70mm portraits and f4, and I'm pleasantly amazed. At this price you cannot ask for better! |
 | sent on March 04, 2020 Pros: Light, sharp even at the maximum opening at 300mm. Cons: Price of the lampshade exaggeratedly high... Opinion: Taken recently to lighten my old kit. With the 80D it works perfectly. Sharpness in addition to expectations and in my opinion, at even focal (but also with cropping...) higher than the various 100-400 and 120-400 Sigma. Autofocus very fast and excellent stabilizer. Given the reduced weight, I recommend it to those who do dynamic hunting, for hiking in the mountains trips etc... |
 | sent on November 19, 2019 Pros: Fast, exceptional focus, crisp. I use it with a 7D Cons: Nobody Opinion: I bought it used, I find it really good. It's very fast, crisp; considering the excursion also has the advantage of lightness. Of note I took pictures of the Giro d'Italia and in the Abruzzo National Park, Lazio and Molise and in some Faunistic Oases. More than excellent results in all very different cases. |
 | sent on September 12, 2019 Pros: Focus speed (ideal with 6D). Optical quality from L-series at least up to 200mm. Design. "Right" size and weight. Effective stabilizer. Cons: The f4 is only at 70mm, already at 72 it becomes f4.5. Opinion: In combination with the 6D gives a crazy speed of focus (considering the autofocus of the 6D), the optical quality is from L series, I tested it compared to a 70 200 f4 L and the photos, with 100% magnification, did not disfigure, indeed sometimes they were better. without considering the plus of the stabilizer (the test was done on easel and is disabled). Obviously I don't have a comparison meter from 200 to 300, but the loss of detail at maximum focal is not obvious. Finally the stabilizer is really effective, it really comes close to the 4 stops promised. In short, an optic with excellent price/performance ratio!! |
 | sent on July 22, 2019 Pros: Sharpness, autofocus speed (crazy), design Cons: It does not focus while zooming (which the Mk 1 did not do) Opinion: A lens of a unique speed thanks to the Nano USM system. Good sharpness for a standard lens not L. I'm a sports photographer and previously I had the Mk 1 of this lens. I never sold it. With this lens I really have a big problem in tracking subjects while I zoom in and zoom out. Let me explain. The lens stops focusing and following the subject as it zooms in (for example, if a subject is approaching and you're in SERVO mode while you're retracting and extending the zoom dial, it stops focusing and you have to stop to continue following the subject with focus). It's a shame, which the previous version didn't do. Since it's an Mk2 I expected that there weren't these downgrades in the lens. For the rest it is an excellent zoom lens for those who travel and everyday use with the new modern Canon machines. I use a 7D Mk2 |
 | sent on June 13, 2019 Pros: Speed and precision autofocus very good sharpness at all focal Cons: As already mentioned by others, the usual lens hood not in outfit but to buy apart (fortunately it is not original good invoice at a ridiculously cheap price) Opinion: I bought this optics discounted 50% at a very low price and cheap. I have to say I was surprised as far as the optical quality, compared to the previous model I had, there really is an abyss, especially at the long focal lengths. I also had the way to compare it directly on the field, taking the same photos with the same parameters with the older brother L series, I have not noticed significant differences in the sharpness. The only difference I have noticed is that the USM compared to the L-series at the maximum focal underlays of half a diaphragm while the older brother maintains a precise exposure, perhaps the 5.6 is only theoretical but are negligible little qualities given the overall quality. As for the construction, I would say it is good, certainly not at the levels of the L obvious series, also because otherwise it would not justify the difference in price, but still more than dignified. Also interesting is the modern solution of the small multifunction display that allows you to select the focal, the distances or the level at will. Conclusions, for those interested in this type of focal without wishing to invest too high figures, and does not have special requirements of tropicalization or extreme robustness x heavy use I recommend it quietly, will not be disappointed by the optical quality. |
 | sent on February 01, 2019 Pros: Image quality, stabilizing and precision autofocus Cons: Nothing Opinion: When I bought it I didn't think it was so sharp, it pulls out quality shots even in boundary conditions (like backlight and hard backgrounds). The stabilization is excellent and has nothing to envy to the L series optics. I definitely recommend it for the features, of course to be used with light in quantity, and for the excellent value for money. |
 | sent on November 01, 2018 Pros: Light, focal hike, picture quality, price. Cons: For what it offers nothing. Opinion: I have this lens for over a year, I use it almost exclusively for outdoor sports photos "Football" exceptional optics. Very light, I own the 70-200 2.8 is, the 100-400 is USM II, which I can tell you for outdoor sports photos offers the same image quality with a significantly lower weight and cost, even better autofocus, in my opinion is for the characteristics and price is The best Canon lens in this focal range. |
 | sent on June 12, 2018 Pros: Sharpness at all apertures and focal lengths, autofocus speed, stabilizer, yet light solid construction, button for minimum focal lock. Cons: The usual lens hood sold separately and at a disproportionate cost, the lock could also be fixed to other focal lengths (eg as it happens on Sigma Tele), it does not have full time MF. Opinion: The lens is definitely great. On recent Canon machines (I used it on 70D and 6d) It really does its job well and really makes the image well. The image is clean and clear even on the demanding and dense 70D. The autofocus is very fast, really lightning. The lens is built very well and is solid but contextually it is very light. Excellent stabilizer. Comparing with Tamron 70-300 VC USD: I had as many as 2 copies of the Tamron 70-300 VC USD and I can say I can do a lens comparison. The Tamron from its has only the lower cost, the more performant stabilizer (however in certain areas the one of the canon can be more useful) and the hood included. In everything else the Canon wins on the Tamron: solidity, construction, lightness, speed and precision autofocus and image quality, similar to 70, at 300 is significantly better. Visible to eye. If you find it on offer, as I found it, then it is a really convenient purchase. I don't know if, given the cost, the Canon 70-300 L IS worth the effort compared to this gem. Useful the informative display that compensates to the lack of the rangefinder of the focus, unfortunately only works on system. |
 | sent on July 03, 2017 Pros: High speed autofocus, weight-weight like bulkheads, affordable online price, finishing, materials, effective stabilizer Cons: Nothing that can not be expected from such an optician Opinion: I bought this optic after using the tamron vc and have tried the previous version of the canon, I have to say that the difference with the previous version is remarkable, the new one is better in all, has an autofocus speed greater than 70-200 L series and it is very silent. Compared to tamron the differences are tapered, stabilizers on the same plane, but the canon is clearly better 200mm later. For those who do not have large numbers to spend this is a lens I recommend, even to travel, it is very compact, the extra display I find quite useless, the hood is good at 16 euro.rnper what Coast creates great files ... I highly recommend it. |
 | sent on March 01, 2017 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). |
