Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras

The Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens is an excellent choice for capturing far-off action or getting up close with an intimate portrait on your Canon SLR camera. This lens shares the same optical system, construction, and exterior as the EF 75-300 mm f/4-5.6 III USM, with the only difference being the use of a DC motor instead of a USM to drive the autofocus.

Measuring 2.8 inches in diameter and 4.8 inches long, and weighing 16.8 ounces, this lens is the most affordable of Canon's long telephoto zooms. It boasts a focal length range of 75-300mm and a maximum aperture of f/4-5.6, providing versatility for a variety of subjects, from portraits to wildlife and nature.

The 13-element optical system delivers excellent image quality, and the lens is compatible with the Canon 58mm Close-up lens 500D for even more impressive close-up shots of small objects. The closest focusing distance of 4.9 feet (1.5m) allows you to fill the frame (at 300mm) with a subject the size of a dollar bill.

One of the key features of this lens is its ability to isolate the interesting parts of a scene. The telephoto zoom can compress images to create dramatic effects, and by bringing attention to the details that the eye often misses, you can capture captivating and unique images.

The lens also features a rotating-type zoom system, making zooming in and out a smooth and seamless process. The front part of the zoom ring sports a silver ring, adding a touch of style to the overall design.

Despite the absence of Image Stabilization, this lens is a great choice for a variety of photographic applications. It's compatible with all Canon SLR cameras and comes with a one-year warranty, ensuring your investment is protected.

In conclusion, the Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens is an excellent option for photographers looking to capture distant subjects or get up close and personal with their subjects. Its affordable price, versatile focal length range, and ability to isolate the interesting parts of a scene make it a valuable addition to any Canon shooter's kit.
