Still learning - but all signs are good January 7, 2009 Doug Folden (Mt. View, California, USA) I picked this up on recommendation of a friend for my New Rebel XSi. I've still only used it minimally, but the shots I have taken have been wonderful. I still need to take it out and shoot the kids playing soccer, baseball or basketball to see how the action is both in doors and outside, but for relatively slow moving or still shots, it's been great. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because I have not had enough time with it yet.
One of the best lenses out there & a great price. January 4, 2009 Clinton J. Wolf (Chicago, IL USA) I owned this lens for quite a while, sold it, and am going to re-purchase it at this great price. It takes fantastic, sharp pictures in very low light situations (such as at the zoo, in one of the "houses"), great sports pictures and much more. I have shot super clear, beautiful animal pictures at 1/25th of a second, due to image stabilization. I think at about $460, this lens is a steal. Rather than writing a long, boring review, click here to see just one of the animal pictures that I shot with this lens: http://eyefetch.com/image.aspx?ID=575247
The price is right December 31, 2008 R. Ho (USA) Updated 1-2-09 Do perform the AF Microadjustment, it does make a difference even if you cannot get it spot on. A very good lens for those on a tight budget. For this price you cannot go wrong. Do not take the free Tiffen filter, use the credit for a Hoya coated filter.
Great Lens November 23, 2008 Charice Kemp (West Memphis, AR) This is the best lens you get for the money. I can't believe how great and easy it is to use. I used it to take pictures of my son playing soccer and I could zoom him right up and get close up's that I could not have gotten with a regular lens. Love this lens.................. C. Kemp
Canon 70-300mm lens November 22, 2008 Frances J. Garraway (Texas) 0 out of 8 found this review helpful
I received the Canon 70-300mm lens quickly from Amazon.com. Their service was great. I haven't had the chance to use the lens much yet, but know I will love it.
