      I think we can be a bit spoiled sometimes. When reviewing cheaper cameras for example, I always try to forget the fact that I use a Canon R5 on a daily basis, and be a bit more even headed about it. If we compare everything to more expensive gear, cheaper kit is always going to look bad.
      It really is a nice little lens indeed, no matter what people say :)

      It could be you got a good copy. I was asked to take candid shots at a local little leaugue baseball game for my job using this lens. At first I had the edge because the lens was light enough to let me walk around and take shots from different angles. My colleagues were "stuck" with the Canon 400mm f2.8 which is a beast of a lens. No way you can walk around with that lens. At then end of the day we comapared our pictures and it was like night and day. The pictures taken with75-300 were absolutely horrible. That was the first time I ever saw pictures look that bad ! I mean I have taken bad pictures before myself, but when 90% of 500 pictures come out bad, that's a problem. That experience left me so shaken that I would try my best to avoid this lens probably, even if it was given to me as a gift.

    I’m a filmmaker and I love this lens for ultra closeups. I was able to zoom into the actresses pupils and you could see the reflection of the other character she was staring at. The lack of stabilization also works if you’re looking for that stalker type of feel for video. You just have to make it work for you honestly.

    I bought this as my first lens with my first camera (5D mkII) a month ago, and I'm already replacing it. For Facebook or Instagram uploads, it is absolutely fine, you can get some great images, its light and it is useful to have 300mm at your fingertips. On the other hand, the image quality is very poor (on mine at least) and with no IS and high aperture, you need very good light to make it work.

    I appreciate your approach to this review. I have seen too many other UA-camrs really beat down on this camera as if they are really expecting a lens you can pick up for under $100 to be some stellar magic machine for a professional. That is obviously not the market for these lenses. They are for hobbyist. So thank you for making me feel better as I am looking to purchase a telephoto lens for as cheap as I can while still being decent for having fun!

      I agree. As a hobbyist. After reading the negative comments. I get the feeling that most of today’s photographers are expecting the lenses & IS to magically make their photos look pro. I look forward to better my photos by learning from bad photos. And using body control, a tri-pod when necessary to better my skills.

    I bought this lense a few days ago and it works fine for me as a beginner. I do plan to use it more and have a better tripod being delivered for my stable shots.
    its a shame its too noisy for video though. USM sucks for video. STM is way better.

    • @christianskyes
      @christianskyes 2 роки тому +3

      It is indeed a good lens for beginners :) Yeah, the widest it can do is f/4, so you'll need quite a bit of light when shooting video. STM is also indeed better.

  • @DryVan2

    The lens in most of your video is the 75-300mm non-USM, did you review the non-USM or the USM one? I know only the AF system is different, but the USM does assist in achieving faster AF and helps with video content too

  • @Crimsomnia
    @Crimsomnia Рік тому +1

    I have used this with both crop sensor and full frame, and the blur and aberrations are - while not intolerable - very noticeable and need extra attention when editing. They get better if you close the F stop down to 16 - 22-ish, but stuff still just ain't exactly sharp. Shooting wide open with the biggest aperture I find the results nearing unusable.

    Wow, again a very artistic, yet informative review! This USED to be one of my LEAST favorite lenses, but is now one of the tools I recommend the most! I currently use one adapted to a Panasonic Micro Four Thirds camera, and think it's a really good tool for a number of reasons:
    1. On 2x M43 it frames up an equivalent CROP to a 600mm lens!
    2. It is small, lightweight enough to add to my camera bag without becoming a burden.
    3. It's affordable (and "budget" is my niche).

      Thanks :) In the case of this video, the voice was recorded with a Zoom H6 + the SGH-6 capsule. I just keep it close to my mouth, but from the side, in order to avoid plosives. It being close to my mouth also helps to reduce unwanted noise, especially as I travel, so I'm rarely in a sound treated room.

    I find it hard to believe that these photos were shot with this lens. I own one and it never produced these kind of shots. Mine has a lot of chromatic aberrations and human skin turns out glossy and has a typical glare with no details. But some new canon DSLR models like the 90D have a processor that corrects a lot of the problems so you don't have to edit them in Photoshop, maybe your camera has one of those processors?

    For the price, it's just a great tool.
    With a full frame camera the output is really good.
    I'd also say, because requires some craft, it is a learning tool that will make you a better photographer once you upgrade to a 70-200 or 100-400

    • @christianskyes
      @christianskyes Рік тому

      That's absolutely true :) Equipment which is not as easy to use as its more expensive counterparts will always make you a better photographer, as it forces you into creative problem-solving mode. When you do eventually graduate to more expensive lenses, you'll get that much more out of them, because of what the old trusty 75-300mm thought you :)
