- Canon 70-300 f/4-5.6L IS is the best choice if you want the most versatile lens that is pretty much just as sharp as the above two (which is really sharp), for a good price. Bigger range, only slightly smaller aperture than the 70-200 f/4. (Not internal zooming though.) Weight is somewhere in the middle, at 1.05kg.


At least with this lens, its hard to judge sharpness by one sample because of procduction variance: See here for the differences between two 70-300L samples: http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/ISO-12233-Sample-Crops.aspx?Lens=738&Camera=453&Sample=1&FLI=0&API=0&LensComp=738&CameraComp=453&SampleComp=0&FLIComp=0&APIComp=0
