Hi all.
new here. my ? would the 70-300l be worth putting on a t3i.
Back in my hunting days i know what good glass is in a rifle.
I have a 75-300 but slow on focusing but works ok.

Wildlife. not a lot of open land here so i'm thinking 300mm would be ok.

I love my 70-300L, especially because of its compact size, fast focus, great IQ, but you should also consider the 100-400L.

If you intend to use the lens on a tripod I would say get the collar.
