It's not as sharp as the newer 100-400, but it is a great all-in-one hiking lens.

I am a professional wedding photographer, and specialize in beach weddings. This is my go to lens for beach weddings - yes, it is a bit on the heavy side, but it's value is unmatched!! 10+ years and never worrying about changing lenses outside especially on the beach because of the dust factor, this lens handles all my needs. Although it is not so great for inside darkly lit ceremonies.

It's heavy, but I love having a 24-70 and a 70-200 all in one lens that's always ready to shoot.
I get shots others do not simply because the lens is always ready to shoot

Great color and sharpness from the Canon 6D, 6DII, and 7DII.

I've had the 28-300 for almost a month. I wanted something that I could leave on my 5D4 so as not to miss an opportunity while walking/hiking. Many times I've had to choose between short/long telephoto and changing required diving into my backpack. This lens solves that while providing great image quality.
This lens, combined with my 5D4 is not a light combination, however. I expected that when looking at the specs. While that could seem a detraction, it prevents having two cameras out and ready.

I purchase the lens to be used on a Canon 5D Mark IV to use on a cruise this summer. I am having a great time learning how to use its features. I like the feature where you can lock a lens position. It takes great photos in low light.

My go to lens for everything!

This lens saves so much room in my kit. While being a little in the heavy side, it replaces 4 lenses. I cover motor sports and I only need 2 lenses now to get all the shots I need at any event. It is also the perfect ‘walking around lens’ due it it’s terrific range. Very sharp!

Superb lens...

After researching this lens I decided to go ahead and purchase one. The biggest complaint I had read was about it's weight... It is a little hefty but not that bad (3.68 lbs add a mono or tripod if need be, but seriously it's not like you're lugging around a 600mm prime) and considering the versatility of this lens for the most part it's all the lens you'll need... Think about it, you won't be caring around multiple lenses and having to switch them out in the field. It's a perfect travel lens.
The second complaint was the Push Pull zoom. Personally I love it! It only took a few minutes to get the hang of it, and now I wish all my zoom lenses had it. AF function is super fast, and optical quality is outstanding.
The only con for me on this lens would be is its price... But then you get what you pay for.
Bottom line; This lens has quickly become my most favorite lens I own and has found its forever home on my 5D Mark IV.
