CAnon Lens:what do you prefer USM or IS lens?




a_joemar


Does year 1990's telephoto zoom lens with USM features are still good enough capturing sharp images such as:
75-300mm III USM
90-300mm USM

Whereas, the
55-250mm (new model) has IS

so, what would you prefer?

How USM is important than IS or vice-versa?

pls advice,

thanks
anway my camera is EOS 450D/XSI

am planning to upgrade to telephoto zoom lens w/c is affordable yet offers quality images
my budget falls up to $350.



Answer
okay basics:

Optical Image Stabilizer (IS) technology suppresses blur when taking stills and minimises image shake when shooting video footage. Canonâs lens-shift type IS allows photographers to shoot at shutter speeds up to 3 stops slower with no perceptible increase in image blur.

An Ultra-Sonic Motor (USM) delivers rapid, responsive zooming with virtually silent operation, reducing the risk of sound interference on movies and or when shooting wildlife subjects.

An Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) lens element curbs chromatic aberrations at longer focal lengths to ensure faithful colour reproduction and sharp definition.

So, basically it will depend on the kind of photo shoot you will do, right?

Generally, IS is more preferred. Personally, I go with IS.

taga-bacolod ka ba kabayan? pupunta ko dyan by september or october. hopefully. patingin naman ng mga camera mo!

Is a CANON EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM LENS good to use for shooting motorsport? Ive been told you need a really bright day otherwise you get blurry shots. Also, can anyone recommend a lens for a canon that is good for motorsport?


Answer
Canon 70-300mm is a good lens for sports.The optical quality is great in day light, the speed is terrific but the quality of the picture in low light situation a bit weak.For low light capability I recommend shooting with a 2.8 aperture lens.Canon 70-200mm f2.8 is a great choice or if you are on budget Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 is a good alternative lens
