Canon Zoom Lense - Scott Hudson, Mar 03, 2008

The Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras does pretty much everything I wanted it to do with the exception of taking action shots. It's a little slow for shots with a lot of movement. However, I recently took a head shot of my Drum Horse "Oreo" at the state fair from about 30 yards away and I was in awe of the result. I have since blown up and framed the shot and now have it hanging in my office. The pros for this lense far outweigh the cons.

I am a Photojournalism major and I love action shots. This lens would have probably worked better on Manual ("M") than on Picture ("P"), but I still got a lot of great shots. I love this lens and I highly recommend it for anyone who is starting out as a photographer.
