| Jun 25, 2018 at 7:22 | comment | added | Michael C | @Zechla The various lenses have totally different optical formulae. The EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III has 13 elements in 9 groups. The EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 STM has 17 elements in 10 groups. The older EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS had 15 elements in 10 groups and traces its lineage back to the EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 IS (which is a totally different lens than the non-IS 75-300s). And while numbers of elements/groups, in and of itself, does not necessarily define which lens will be better, in this case the current 70-300mm and 55-250mm offerings are considerably better performers than the current 75-300.. | |
