Impressive focal range

The Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM UD telephoto zoom lens covers a versatile 70-300mm range for portraiture and distant subjects. It belongs to the celebrated L-series and includes two Ultra Low Dispersion elements to reduce chromatic aberration. A floating focusing mechanism maintains sharpness from close-up to infinity. The lens is dust and water resistant with a fluorine coating that resists smears and fingerprints.

Locked travel size

A manual lock switch on the barrel keeps the lens compact at the 70mm position for travel, measuring approximately 5.6 inches when closed. When fully extended to 300mm the overall length reaches about 8.25 inches. Focus adjustment uses inner focusing with a focus cam plus a floating mechanism so the barrel does not rotate during autofocus. A removable tripod collar includes a function that prevents erroneous operation on a tripod or monopod.

EF mount compatibility

The lens mounts directly to Canon EOS SLR cameras via the EF interface and communicates electronically for aperture control and image stabilisation. The IS system increases usability by approximately four stops, aiding handheld shooting at longer focal lengths. Buyers who need a wider angle than 70mm or a faster constant aperture will find this model does not meet those requirements.

Questions about this item

How do I lock the lens for travel and which focal length does the lock work at?

Slide the manual lock switch on the barrel side; it only engages at the 70 mm position to keep the lens compact for transport.

What regular care does the Fluorine coating need to stay effective?

Wipe the front and rear elements with a clean microfibre cloth; the coating resists smears and fingerprints so only light cleaning is required.

How many stops of shake correction does the IS system provide during long hand-held sessions?

The built-in Image Stabiliser adds roughly four stops of correction, which is the first limit reached when shooting at slower shutter speeds.
