I have been taking photographs for 53 years and earning a good living from aviation photography for most of my adult life and yet I am still surprised by the image quality I am getting from this (rather hefty) piece of glass when coupled with a 5D or better. If your shoulder can take it then it is worth every penny. Drawbacks? The vulnerability of the hood when in place - but, hey, how on earth are Canon supposed to solve that one? If you are seriously considering this lense go for it - there will be no regrets. Review ID: 10000000004433226 Was this review helpful?

This is a professional quality Canon zoom lens which need no recommendation from me as it is well documented, as is the rest of the canon family of zoom lenses used by wildlife photographers the world over for ‘clarity at a distance’ this item was purchase new and is therefore flawless. I am more than happy with the purchase. Review ID: 10000000004749236 Was this review helpful? Report this review 7 of 7 people found this review helpful. I had wanted this lens for some time but could not justify the cost, however the price from emilyandlily was so attractive that the deal was made. This was also my first purchase on ebay and, despite my reservations, delivery was prompt, there were no hidden costs and results from the lens are fantastic. Thank you Review ID: 10000000005891089 Was this review helpful? Report this review 7 of 7 people found this review helpful. I bought a Canon D350 so I could afford a lens like this and it was worth it! It is fantastic. So many people get hung up on the best body they can buy or upgrading as soon as a new model is released. Why? unless you are at the top of your game chances are the body you have is still better than you are. So my advice is put your money into the lens. This one is perfect for wildlife and sports. The 'IS' is magic. I got a great deal on a second hand un-used one and saved £350 on the average retail price. Worth every penny and some. Do it!!!!

Quelques difficultés dans les atmosphères sombres. (Comme malheureusement la plupart des téléobjectifs, la focale d'ouverture commence à 4,5). Je suis néanmoins très heureux de cet achat, d'autant plus que certains sites anglais (emilyandlily) offre des prix très compétitifs et je n'ai pas eu encore le temps de le tester complètement : les photos par beau temps sont splendides, ce que je cherchai) Very good zoom telephoto. Some Difficulties in dark atmosphere. (like evry zoom :focus open at 4.5...) Neither, I am happy to bought it. You are lucky in Great Britain because of some sailors like (emilyandlily) wich have nice prices. I don't have test all the zoom but pictures whith sunny time are great and that I expected. (Sorry for the mistakes: english isn't my first langage) Review ID: 10000000004608881 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
