"RING TYPE" ULTRASONIC Zoom Lens

When Canon began production of their second generation of Ring Type USM lenses, they started with three that have become classics with well deserved reputations.  One of the three is the offered EF 100-300mm f/4.5-5.6 USM in this auction.  Rounding out the trio are the EF 35-135mm f/4.0-5.6 USM and the EF 70-210mm f/3.5-4.5 USM.

As in other classic EF lenses of this era, Canon engineered durability with this model’s superior heavy duty STAINLESS STEEL METAL LENS MOUNT, convenience by their inclusion of a real distance scale window and affordability by designing it to accept 58mm filters and accessories.  Unlike some of its successors in the mid grade EF line up, it boasts the superior Ultrasonic “Ring Type” Motor, allowing fast, accurate and virtually silent focusing.  There is no comparison between this design and the cheap “Micro Motor” USM variations.  

Canon viewed this medium to long telephoto model as its “Super Telephoto” lens.  Weighing in at a mere 19 ounces with a compact size from 4.8 inches to 6.8 inches when at maximum zoom, this is a lens you will not tire of when walking around outdoors using its distance grabbing capabilities.  Given its wide 3:1 zoom range, it allows you to tackle many photo opportunities, whether concerts, sports, wildlife or outdoor activities with family or friends.  You can take advantage of these diverse situations with a zoom lens that has an excellent maximum aperture of f/4.5.

This comfortable, compact super telephoto USM lens still remains in the extensive Canon EF auto focus lens lineup.  Optically and mechanically it easily outperforms the more popular middle grade Canon 75-300mm f/4-5.6 USM.  As a result samples of this lens offered in the condition available here have become increasingly RARE.

 

LENS CONDITION:

OPTICAL:

·       The 8 aperture blades on this lens are oil free and operate in the critical “snappy” manner.

·       Both front and rear glass is clear.

·       No haze or fog is visible in this lens.

·       As in most used zoom lenses, some dust may be noticed inside the lens.  It will not create problems for your photographs taken with this lens.

OPERATION:

·       Zooming functions smoothly & quickly throughout the entire focal length.  You can be taking a tight portrait at 100mm and instantly zoom out to 300mm to photograph action across the field.

·       “Zoom Drift” is present in this lens.  The action of this zoom still feels smooth.

·       Auto focus operates quickly and accurately.

·       The AF/M switch functions properly.

·       The manual focus ring functions correctly from 58.5 inches to infinity.

COSMETIC:

·       The focusing ring, zoom ring, AF/M switch and hand grip surfaces are very clean.  THERE EXIST NO CRACKS IN THIS LENS! 

·       All lettering and numbers on the lens barrel are perfect and completely legible.  One exception is the letter C in Canon has some scratches over it and over the name Canon. 

·       Its distance scale window is clear as well as all the markings on the scale.

· Overall this lens, which has a few stray nicks/scratches, is in near MINT CONDITION!!

 

COSMETICALLY, ELECTRONICALLY, MECHANICALLY AND OPTICALLY, THIS LENS REPRESENTS A RARE FIND!

 

This Canon model has a further operational advantage of allowing Full Time Manual (FTM) focusing, meaning that even while using the benefits of its auto focus system you can make fine adjustments manually.  You thus achieve superior control of your depth-of-field for how your want to emphasize your subjects.

With the use of internal focusing this lens keeps its compact size.  Even when zooming, a movement that takes only a quarter turn of the large, easily gripped zoom ring, the barrel will only extend an additional 2 inches.  As importantly, the front element does not rotate, allowing for ease of use of special effects filters such as polarizers. 

Given the wide zoom range of this versatile lens, plus its reasonable maximum aperture in a lightweight, compact unit, it should come as no surprise that photographers “on the go” will often take this lens first or often alone.  Along with the fact that many “L” lens features are present in this model, it’s easy to see how the EF 100-300mm f/4.5-5.6 USM super telephoto zoom has still remained in the Canon lens catalog for 20 years.

Be advised that when mounted on a Canon Digital Rebel XT, XTi, XSi, XS, T1i, T2i, T3i, T3, T4i, SL1, T5, T5i, 7D, 300D, 70D, 60D, 50D, 40D, 30D, 20D or 10D, this Field Of View (FOV) is equivalent to a 160-480mm “Super Zoom” lens. That's due to the 1.6 X "crop factor" magnification. This provides you with a compact telephoto to super long telephoto lens, the ideal range for a vast majority of outdoor action photo opportunities for your Canon EOS Digital SLR.

 

IF YOUR CAMERA IS A CANON EOS, WHETHER DIGITAL OR FILM, THIS LENS WILL FIT AND WORK PERFECTLY!

 

ELECTRONICALLY, OPTICALLY AND MECHANICALLY AN OUTSTANDING LENS!
