Canon 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM lens
Aug 1, 2020 12:29:45 #
This lens is in like-new condition. It has seen very little use (my Lightroom catalog shows it was used to take 1917 pictures). There is no visible internal dust, scratches, marring or other defects in or on lens; no visible scratches, marring or other defects on body. I am selling it to help pay for my new Canon R5.
It includes the original box, pouch, hood, lens caps, warranty card. It sells for $1349 new and KEH lists a used one in excellent condition for $817 without the tripod collar. I am including the matching Canon tripod mount ring C (WII) (collar) ($165 new; $93 used). So used prices available are about $910. I am asking $800, plus insured shipping.

High performance telephoto zoom lens
With a focal length range of 70-300mm, the EF 70-300mm f4-5.6L IS USM is a compact and versatile telephoto zoom lens delivering exceptional image quality. Ideal for wildlife and sports photographers, as well as photo journalism and portraiture.
L-series quality
The L-series is Canon's flagship professional lens range, representing the best in precision-designed EF optics. L-series lenses combine superior performance with superlative handling, and are highly resistant to dust and moisture.
4-stop Image Stabilizer
A 4-stop optical Image Stabilizer – specially designed for the lens’ specific focal length range – works to counteract image blur, which can occur during handheld shooting, or at slow shutter speeds. Automatic panning detection ensures effective performance when tracking moving subjects and, as the IS system is based in the lens, results are visible through the viewfinder during framing.
Two UD elements
Chromatic aberration is virtually eliminated by the inclusion of two UD lenses, ensuring optimum image quality and sharpness.
Creative background blur
An 8 blade circular aperture on the EF 70-300mm f4-5.6L IS USM creates beautiful background blur, making your subject stand out with dramatic effect.
Fast, quiet auto focus
A ring USM (Ultrasonic motor) uses ultrasonic frequency vibrations to drive extremely rapid auto focus with near-silent operation. A high-speed CPU and optimised AF algorithms contribute further to AF speed. Good holding torque stops the focusing lens group without overshoot. Full time electronic manual focus override is available without having to switch out of AF mode.
