A very good lens for the price.
The only downfall is that it takes a long time to adjust without automatic focus. (probably because of the wide range) but other than that it is a amazing lens; the quality is amazing, and the mm is prefect to reach close-up birds.

Still Going Strong After Years of Service
I bought this lens years ago with an 80D and used it for wildlife and sports. Earlier this year, I switched to an R6 Mark II, and this lens is the only EF lens I kept because it is still a quality piece of glass. I am still using it for sports and now landscape photography. I have no plans to replace it unless it quits working.

So far so good!
I haven't used the lens just yet, but the fit, finish seems to be on par with my other Canon lenses.

Newer sometimes IS better!
A very nice lens that I got about two months ago. I compared it to my old 70-200 L lens (over 12 years old) and I must say the quality of the photos are pretty much the same (when outdoors). Indoors we got a problem, because this lens only does f/5.6 at max zoom, so that is not much light. But when outdoors?! This lens is wonderful!

Nice
Excellent lens when 600mm is too extreme for the mid range grouping

Fantastic Lens
Only L options in this zoom range are extremely heavy (and white). Not a fan of the colour or weight. Waited for this lens to be in stock and ordered. Used for a recent trip to Hawaii. Unbelievable picture quality and focus speed. Absolutely no noise during focus. Again, the quality and colour of the pictures are unreal. For the money, lower weight, and non stand out colour, this lens is worth every penny and then some. Truly impressed!

Great new 70-300 tele-zoom
Great all-around tele-zoom, and sharp. Not as bright to focus with as my 300 2.8, but it’s a lot smaller and lighter for everyday shots. A versatile addition to my gear. Easy to use, the fastest autofocus I’ve seen. No tripod collar, but this lens is so easy to handle, and with IS, it doesn’t need one. Bought this lens to supplement, not replace any other lenses, feel like I got a lot for the price.

Great for telephoto and macro!
I found this lens perfect for taking photographs of wildlife and garden bugs and bees. It is light enough so I do not need a tripod to keep it still, and I can saunter off for hours and hardly notice any weight.

Awesome Lens
This lens is awesome, I use it for everything from portraits to landscape shot. It has a nice sharp focus and the aperture goes low enough for a nice bokeh effect.

Its worth it
Lighter in weight compare to most lense. I like the sharp focus. The precision in detail.

Awesome lens for both full and crop frames
I bought this lens and it takes awesome pictures on both my 6D and 90D. Under good light, I can not tell a difference in picture quality between this lens vs my 70-200 F4 L IS. and the extra reach to 300mm is very good to have. Plus the lens is lighter and I took it on my recent trip to Alaska and caught some great shots of Grizzly bears.

Incredible for the price!
This lens is to die for when you're on a budget. I work in sports and couldn't afford the fancy lenses, so I bought this one just to have something with the zoom needed for proper sports photos and WOW! Sure there are little things here and there (sometimes slow to focus being the main one), with it being a lower quality lens, but I can get amazing photos from it and for the price those little quirks don't matter.

70-300mm lens
I’m able to take photos sitting in the top of the stands while grandchildren show their cattle in the arena. The closer I zoomed to 300mm the more noise. Lens is heavier than expected. Overall, good starting telephoto lens.

Not bad!
Not a bad lens. The auto focus, as always with Canon cameras and lenses, functions perfectly. Images are nice and sharp even through this lens not being image stabilized. I almost thought that due to its size I could use this lens while hand-holding the camera but I was wrong. Definitely use this lens on a tripod or monopod.
