The Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 II is an entry-level telephoto zoom designed for Canon EF-mount DSLRs, offering a versatile 4x zoom range that covers portrait through medium telephoto focal lengths. It's a solid starting point for photographers looking to reach beyond a standard kit lens — whether for wildlife, sports sidelines, travel, or casual nature shooting — at an accessible price point. On APS-C bodies, the effective range extends to approximately 120–480mm, adding even more reach for wildlife and distant subjects.

The lens features 13 elements in 9 groups with Canon's Super Spectra coating applied to reduce flare and ghosting for accurate color rendition. Autofocus is handled by a DC micro motor (non-USM on the base II variant), and the 7-blade diaphragm contributes to reasonably smooth out-of-focus rendering. Minimum focus distance is 1.5m (4.9 ft.) with a maximum magnification of 0.25x, making it workable for moderately close subjects. The 58mm filter thread and compact, lightweight build (480g) make this an easy lens to travel with or keep in a bag as a dedicated reach option.

Features:

• Canon EF mount; compatible with full-frame and APS-C bodies (effective 120–480mm on APS-C)
• 13 elements in 9 groups; Super Spectra coating for flare and ghosting control
• 7-blade diaphragm for smooth bokeh
• DC micro motor autofocus system
• Minimum focus distance 4.9 ft. (1.5 m); maximum magnification 0.25x
• Compact and lightweight at 16.9 oz (480 g); 58mm filter thread
