Who It’s For:
The Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS USM is Canon’s professional 300mm prime lens for sports and headshot photographers. If you absolutely need f/2.8 at 300mm, this is the lens for you, but if you shoot mostly in daylight, you might want to gravitate towards the f/4 model. This lens has been replaced by an updated version the Mk. II.
Who It’s For:
The Canon 300mm f/4L IS USM is a fantastically sharp lens that is for the photographer who needs 300mm, but doesn’t need the f/2.8 aperture. So, if you shoot sports or headshots and don’t need the extra low light abilities of the f/2.8, this is the lens for you. It’s also quite a lot cheaper.
Who It’s For:
This lens is Canon’s top of the line professional super telephoto lens for sports, and nature photographers. Pair it with a fast Canon DSLR and you’ve got yourself a mean combo.
What We Like:Autofocus: The autofocus on this lens is very fast and super accurate

Who It’s For:
This is Nikon’s longest professional zoom lens that’s a very special purpose lens for working professionals. It’s big, it’s expensive and it’s absolutely brilliant, but it’s definitely a special purpose lens so if you need it, you’ll love it, but unless you do, it’s a little overkill.
What We Like:Range: This lens has a huge range from 200mm to 400mm that will take you from telephoto to super telephoto.
Who It’s For:
This lens is the definition of the all purpose lens. It’s big, it’s heavy but with a 10x zoom range, there’s very little that you’ll need to take this lens off of your camera body for. So if you don’t like carrying a bag full of lenses around and just want a single lens to cover all the way from normal to super telephoto, this is the lens for you.
