📷 Pre-Owned Canon EF 80-200mm f/4.5-5.6 II Autofocus Zoom Telephoto Lens Review

My wife got this as a gift this year and loves every shot she takes. This is her second lens for a Canon camera and it was a great next step in her photography. Now hopefully she stays far enough away from the bull moose we see regularly so he doesn't pounce on us!

I don't know how people can afford to spend thousands of dollars on a lens except for professional users. This lens was very affordable and took sharp and clear pictures. Of course, I'm an inexperienced photographer. However, the photos look good and the shutter speed worked well to capture my daughter exercising.

This affordable and very lightweight lens. Admittedly, I wasn't overly impressed at first, but with the addition of a Sigma UV filter, my 200mm shots are sharper and more accurate to the subject. At 200, images tend to be a bit soft, but it's noticeable if you're not cropping seriously. With this lens I also prefer to shoot with auto zoom than with manual zoom.

To my surprise, it arrived a day early and had no scratches or signs of wear! I'm surprised it doesn't look used, I'll make sure I don't miss the opportunity to buy something used next time. I'm very satisfied considering I work nights and was actually waiting for a new battery for my camera and got it before the main delivery so I don't have to worry about it tomorrow! Even though it's an old lens I researched it just to make sure I know what I'm getting and it's definitely all I've read about

To be honest, I'm not entirely convinced of this lens. But that doesn't disappoint either. A good lens for the price and a great entry-level lens. I bought this lens when I switched to a DSLR with my 10D. Take decent pictures. Not stunningly sharp, but usable for a range of tasks. Although I'm not sure about action shots yet. The biggest challenge I had with him was a volleyball game my wife was coaching. I took 100 shots with this lens and got about 15 that I'm happy with. I haven't really…
