Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon SLRs

The Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Telephoto Zoom lens is a slimmer and longer 70-300mm range lens than others on the market. It is less expensive, but still considered an upscale lens. It features improved image stabilization technology from Canon that allows stabilization up to three stops of shake correcting. It also has a mode two image stabilization system that allows steady stabilization while panning on a moving subject.

MSRP: $649.99

This lens has a faster auto focus, is smaller and lighter than the original model of the same focal range. It also has a feature that allows you to lock the lens at the 70mm position to keep it as compact as possible while not in use. This is a great telephoto lens for travelers and professionals with limited space in their camera bag that still need the super telephoto capabilities of the 300mm max zoom level.

When you are taking outdoor shots of mountains and far away landscapes, this is the perfect lens to bring subjects into view that you can not even see with the naked eye. Once you use one of these telephoto lenses, you will be hooked on taking shots from a greater distance than you ever thought possible before. You will marvel at the ability to take clean, clear and crisp images at such a far distance as this lens makes possible.

You never know when you will run into a situation where you can not get close enough to the subject to use a regular zoom lens. That is when the EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Telephoto Zoom Lens comes into play. It can get shots never before possible with lesser telephoto lenses. Go with the granddaddy of telephoto lenses and capture images far away with the 300mm zoom lens and make it look like the subject was right at your feet when you took the picture!
