Have used this lens for Aviation photography for almost 2 years now, i understand this is a starter lens, usually on a starter camera, (T7) but this lens definitely has some problems. Zooming past 150-200 mm cooks the sharpness, but after mastering the lens, it can be a manageable loose cannon, getting sharper images after figuring out camera settings and prime focal lengths. Going from this lens to the EF 100-400, is a whole different experience. The 75-300 is a decent starter lens and i won't discredit it, it has got me some of my best photos, (somehow) but in conclusion, there are definitely better lenses out there. Cheers.

The worst autofocus lens ever manufactured

The only canon product i've ever been disappointed with. I've owned this lens for about 12 years now, it's about as sharp as a balloon. Soft focus galore on every single shot. When I sold my T3 (which this lens came with) I refused to sell this lens to the buyer, as this lens almost made me quit photography. I was convinced I didnt know what I was doing, however, when I purchased an L series lens suddenly my results became useable. I was able to definitively determine that this lens was the cause of my poorly focused images.

I bought this to replace a 19 year old similar lens from another manufacturer that finally began having intermittent communication issues with the camera. The new lens is smaller, lighter and focuses much faster than the old one. It's also a lot quieter when focusing. A big plus is that it uses filters the same diameter as two other lenses I already use, making the load I have to carry around a lot lighter.

I bought this lens for my EOS Rebel T7 about 1 month ago and it does not have the zoom feature that I was hoping for. My old Canon SX700 HS did a much greater job at zooming in on the moon. Unfortunately, I dropped my T7 and ruined the lens and I can no longer buy a new one.

The reviews for this lens are really funny especially the older ones. I’m using this with a Neewer EF- to RF adaptor on a Canon R10 and I’m getting some amazing photos with this lens. It does suffer slightly in low light due to the slow speed. However so does my R10. For the price and the build quality and the fact the images you get look great make this a 5 star lens imho. Definitely a great piece of kit to learn with as well.

I bought this lens 6 weeks ago and have been very impressed with it thus far. The only reason I didn't give it a five star rating is I don't believe it was intended to be a five star telephoto lens. Light weight, easy to use, and taking impressive shots of birds in flight I have no complaints. If this lens can freeze a hummingbird's wings in flight and make a sharp clear portrait of it then I got my money's worth. And indeed, I got my money's worth. I'm glad I got it added to my glass.

This was a kit lens for a new T3. When I worked pro (1967 - 1997) I used all Nikon but that was 35mm film. After a 15 year break I got back into photography, but as a hobby so I ended up going with Canon. My learning curve was not only digital over film, but other options like stabilization. For about six months I got nothing with this lens and I tried. But not having used IS I was unaware of what a difference it can make. My brother in law gave me the 55 - 250 IS zoom for Christmas that year so that became my main medium to distance lens. During the six months or so I tried to use this lens nothing came out good. It is light and easy to use, but I didn't really give it a chance. Lately (2020 during the Covid19 shutdown) I gave it a chance. Here's my thoughts on the 75-300. If you are older than 60 you need IS. Period. Don't buy this lens. If you have arthritis or essential tremors or Parkinsons don't buy this lens. If you don't like using a tripod don't buy this lens. Now, if you fit any of the above and are willing to practice practice practice - you may get the hang of getting good shots with this lens. If not - you won't. BUT - you don't NEED to! Find a lens with IS and move on. If you are wanting to give your young grandkids a decent lens to learn on this is good for that. Giving it a chance and using a tripod I have gotten one (that's a 1) good shot. But I had to work and learn. That takes time. Sorry but if you are past 80 (I'm almost there) you probably don't have as much time to put any of it into learning and learning. Forget this lens and go for an L with IS. You should begin getting wonderful photographs immediately. Crop sensor or Full-Frame. That's my opinion. Thank you for listening.
