The details

At a glance: 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III EF tele-zoom - entry-level, no USM, no IS.

About this lens

The Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III is the entry-level version of Canon's long-serving consumer tele-zoom, without USM or IS. A simple, light, affordable option for occasional telephoto work - long reach at modest cost.

Build & handling

Autofocus DC motor (slower, more audible than USM)
Image stabilisation No
Minimum focus distance 1.5m
Filter thread 58mm
Weight 480g
Construction Plastic mount

Works with

  • Canon EF-mount full-frame DSLRs (5D series, 6D, 1D series)
  • Canon EF-mount APS-C DSLRs (acts as ~120-480mm equivalent)
  • Canon RF mirrorless via EF-EOS R adapter

Best for

The cheapest of Canon's 75-300 tele-zooms - no USM, no IS, just long reach for occasional use. Works on full-frame and APS-C (reaching 480mm equivalent), but without IS a faster shutter or tripod is needed at 300mm.

Frequently asked questions

Does this lens have image stabilisation?

No. 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.

  • A 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.
