Canon EF 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 DO IS USM

Review Date: Oct 4, 2019 Recommend? yes | Price paid: $235.00 | Rating: 9 

 
Pros: Compact, Macro, lock at 70mm, Image quality!
Cons:
A little heavy for size, somewhat soft at base aperture.

Got a steal on this lens at $235 so I thought I would try it despite the not so great reviews... My copy can be magical!!! It has the finest Bokeh, sharpness and contrast (stopped down a bit) that I am in love with!!!
Wonderful Macro photos, very smooth, nice compact size although hefty. Well worth the $$$ paid and then some! Love it, can't let it go...

Pros: Sharpness Micro-Sharpness Beautiful Bokeh
Cons:
Only negative is size and weight, would prefer it to be less, but worth it in the final result! Bought it used with a crack in the distance scale, not a negative being that I got a great deal, but I am fussy and that has nothing to do with the negative aspect of the lens, it is outstanding!

Wow I am speechless, this is hands down the best lens I have used on my D600. Sharpness and micro sharpness are incredible, bokeh is soft - stays on my camera 90% of the time now. Have the dock nice but no adjustments were necessary. Just get one...

Pros: I like this lens, contrasty, color and focus spot on and sharp, sharp,sharp at all apertures. In fact, sharper and better tham my 17-40L GASP...
Cons:
Size, a little chunky and limited range, but supurb quality photos, not sure why this is not ranked higher unless I lucked out and got an exceptional copy... Best $240 I ever spent... Make sure you look at the DG version as there are 2 versions of this lens.

Just get it! (DG version)
