Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Lens for Canon EOS SLR Cameras

The lens meets my expectations. I'm disappointed with picture quality at 300mm, blurry - definately need a tripod.
I'm angry about an added charge for New York sales tax. I'm not a resident of NY. Amazon wouldn't ship the item to an APO address (which our federal government declares must be viewed as a US address); so I had it delivered to a family member in NY, then forwarded to me. I was shocked to see the previously undisclosed charge added to my bill.

Having only used the lens for a few weeks, I have not had that many opportunities to see limitations, but overall the lens seems to do all that I could have asked of it. The autofocus seems to be very fast and accurate. It is not a "l" series lens, but for the price and the focal length, it is able to capture action frames as fast as the Rebel xsi it is mounted on will cycle. I am very pleased with the performance of this lens so far and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for an affordable way to outfit their digital SLR.

This lens is outstanding. I am a rookie mom taking football pictures for my freshman son's games and the photos I have been able to get are great. I am in the stands and my pictures look like I am right next to the players. I can see their eyes in some photos.

I bought my camera at Best Buy but found that Amazon had the best price for lens and memory cards

Great lens package.

This is my first dSLR camera, so I do not have much experience with other lenses. I can tell you every shot I take looks great, well, as great as the operators abilities! I have captured some wonderful shots of birds from across my yard, the details remain clear even if I crop them in futher later.

WAAAAY too expensive (they all are though) but it gets the job done. A decent lens, but it's definitely NOT an "all-in-one"... you'll need others to get the job done. The low and high ends are pretty much useless, but the mid-range is good.
