75-300 f/4-5.6 or 100-300 USM

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Canon EOS FAQ forum : One Thread

I am looking for a zoom lens mainly to be used for nature and wildlife. I have researched quite a bit, and have narrowed my choices to the 75-300 or the 100-300 USM. Any advice, pros/cons, other suggestions??? As you can see, I am not looking at spending too much, but would like a good quality lens. I was set on the 75-300, but have been swayed towards the 100-300 USM from the posts in this forum. Any suggestions???

Surely you've noticed that this is one of the most overasked questions on this forum. Don't the previous posts answer your question?

Go for the 75-300 IS.
