You get what you pay for. If you're satisfied with the look of the Canon stay with Canon. |

right now i am using the 75-300 and am not terribly impressed. i intend to replace it and was at first thinking that the canon 70-300 is lens would be a reasonably priced improvement. And then i found this site and now wonder how the contax and canon stack up against each other. |

The new(er) 70-300 IS is a big improvement over the old 75-300 IS which it replaced. It receives very favorable reviews. Check www.fredmiranda.com for some reviews. |
