Canon EF 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6L IS USM Lens Review

 

The Canon EF 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6L IS USM Lens is the right choice for those times when you need a wide range of focal lengths but only one lens can go with you and both lens and image quality cannot be compromised . The 28-300 L is the best Canon...

Canon EF 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6L IS USM Lens Review

 

The Canon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6L IS lens is an excellent all-around performer with an enormous amount of potential. With an effective focal length range of almost eleven-times, from a wide angle 28mm to a telephoto

Canon EF 28

 

At PMA 2004 Canon announced a new lens, the EF 28-300/3.5-5.6L IS USM. It'svery similar to the current EF35-350/3.5-5.6L in size and shape and is itslogical successor. Going from 35mm to 28mm at the wide end is well worth the lossof the 300mm - 350mm...

An elephant of a Lens

 

The EF 28-300 f/3.5-5.6L is my walkabout lens on my 7DII. Although it is fairly large for a compact lens, I have no issues with its weight or size. It's not as sharp as my Canon prime lenses but its versatility far outweighs that issue. In low light...

95% stays on my 1DSMarkIII

 

This lens stays on my 1DSIII 95% of the time. I also have the 24L, 100L IS, 100-400L with 2X&1.4. Granted it is fairly heavy but I do hike Yosemite with it.

L Lens Versatility

 

I suspect that anyone that is considering this lens is primarily interested in the range of versatility within one high quality lens, as was I. Whether on a crop sensor or full frame this is an amazing lens, especially if you don't want to carry your...

Stop Waiting, Buy It!

 

I watched this lens for literally a year, reading review after review, trying to figure out if it was worth the money before I finally purchased it. Since I took it out of the box, I have not taken the lens off my camera (18 MP 60D) and LOVE IT! So...

Great in bright light

 

Okay, in reference to the earlier review; I kept the lens and I have been using it due to it's incredibly flexible range. I shot offroad races last weekend and the lens was the no brainer to take. I could get people in the pits close by and when the...

How Did I Live Without It?

 

I've got a number of lenses for my 5D Mark III - some from a 15 year old 30-D including a 28-200mm zoom. The old lens works on the Mark III just fine but really doesn't seem to provide the artistic effect that I wanted. So, I took the plunge and bought...

I must have a bad one?!?

 

I am using this lens on a 5D3. First the focusing is an issue since the camera is having problems it does not have with any of the other (5) L lenses I use. The ISO is also kicked into really high numbers in indoor shots and for no appreciable reason,...
