COMMENTS:

One of Canon's best lenses. All of Canon's 300/2.8L lenses have been excellent and this one is no exception. The IS makes the EF 300/2.8L IS handholdable (if you're strong) and of course it takes both the 1.4x and 2x TCs, giving you a very good 420/4 and a still good 600/5.6 (both with full AF on all EOS bodies), so you get 3 lenses for the price of one!
