![]() For a long time, the 70-300 DO lens was the only high quality Canon zoom in this range. It still has several advantages, being much more compact (although a bit heavier and more expensive) than the standard 70-300 IS zoom lens that we also carry. It also has a nonrotating front element, an advantage when a polarizer is needed. There are pages of arguments on the internet over which is best – it’s one of those discussions that no one has the answer to, including us. Roger’s take: I personally prefer the longer but lighter 70-300 IS to the shorter and heavier 70-300 DO IS. If you shoot RAW and don’t mind a little postprocessing to up the contrast you’ll be very happy with DO pictures. If you want to shoot jpgs and don’t want to sweat the images in Photoshop, you’ll probably prefer the standard 70-300 IS. Specs:
