About this lens
The Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 USM is Canon's long-serving consumer tele-zoom, covering a useful long-telephoto range for wildlife, sports and distant subjects. Affordable, light, and widely bundled with Canon EOS kits.

Works with

- Canon EF-mount APS-C DSLRs (acts as ~120-480mm equivalent)
- Canon RF mirrorless via EF-EOS R adapter
Best for
A light, long-reach EF zoom for occasional telephoto use - wildlife, sports, distant events. Reaches 480mm-equivalent on APS-C bodies. Without IS, a faster shutter speed or tripod is essential at the 300mm long end.
Frequently asked questions
Does this lens have image stabilisation?
No. The USM variant predates Canon's consumer IS telephoto zooms. Stabilised alternatives include the EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM and the EF-S 55-250mm IS.
Will it work on Canon RF mirrorless bodies?
Yes, via the Canon EF-EOS R adapter. Autofocus and IS are preserved, and the lens functions normally on R, R5, R6, R7, R8, R50 and other RF bodies.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
