Affordable high magnificationThe powerful yet reasonably priced EF
70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM will appeal to nature and sports photographers looking to achieve sharper images when shooting handheld. Focal length translates to approx. 112-480
mm equivalent in 35
mm film format when fitted to cameras with APS-C size sensors.Image StabilizerThe EF
70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM features
Canons 3-stop Image Stabilizer IS. Ideal for handheld photography,
CanonTs Image Stabilizer allows photographers to use shutter speeds up to 3-stops slower with no perceptible increase in image blur. For stabilized panning, IS Mode 2 only corrects for unwanted vertical shake by switching off IS in the horizontal direction. IS is ideal for low light conditions, fast paced scenes and for shooting from moving vehicles. IS switches off automatically when the camera is mounted on a tripod.UD lens elementA UD ultra-low dispersion glass lens element corrects chromatic aberration to achieve high resolution and contrast throughout the zoom range without colour fringing on subject outlines. Only lead free glass is used in the lens construction.Super Spectra coatingsOptimised Super Spectra lens coatings and lens element shaping suppress flare and ghosting - more prone to occur with digital cameras due to reflection off the image sensor. Coatings also help achieve true colour balance and sharp high contrast images.Pleasing background blurA circular barrel aperture helps to create an attractive, even background blur when isolating a subject at large apertures.Fast auto-focusThe lenss micro USM motor uses ultra-sonic frequency vibrations to drive rapid auto-focus with near-silent operation. Good holding torque ensures there is no overshoot. A high speed CPU and optimised AF algorithm contribute to AF speed literally faster than the human eye.AccessoriesAccessories include a lens hood ET-65B and a soft case LP1222.FeatureProduct FeaturesTechnical detailsFilter size58
