Just thought I would share these. Taken with my new 75-300 IS that I love.
Really first time getting to use it. I think it does an excellent job. Some say bad things about it and some good. But I think it's awesome.

I couldn't believe how sharp these photos came out. I'm very happy with it and if any one has second thoughts about buying one of these lenses I say go for it. I think you will be very happy :-) with it.

I have the 75-300 IS. It is a fairly good good lens as long as your not comparing it to some L glass. With it's short comings I still enjoy the lens. BTW nice pictures.

I just got the same lens and i have to say that i was excited whem i was chimping the pics on the lcd, but I have yet to get a pic that comes out on the screen as sharp as I would have hoped.

It is great to get that close but I would have liked it to be a LOT sharper

just my $.02 after buying it, think i should have went for the 70-200 f4l for clse to the same price

Very nice!

I especially like the second one, very nice lighting.

The first looks a bit dark on my (uncalibrated) monitor, and the third one would profit from her turning her head a bit.

Best regards,
Andy
