EF70-300mm 1/4-5.6 IS USM. 11125sE
Most children love going to the zoo.
Here's how to shoot "wild" picturesl
Great shot! Can you get it? Photographing animals from afar takes good timing and usually,
super-telephoto lens. But don't worry! With a steady-shooting Canon IS Lens,
there's no fear of blurry results. Even if you're not using a tripod.
Blurring is virtually unavoidable when shooting
distant subjects with a telephoto lens (unlike a
wide-angle lens). Maybe you can reduce blur
with a faster shutter speed, but that won't work
on cloudy days or when shooting subjects in
shadow. So a Canon IS Lens is a must!
