Canon EF 75–300mm f/4–5.6 II (Non‑USM) – Excellent Condition, EF Mount

The Canon EF 75–300mm f/4–5.6 II is the second‑generation version of Canon’s classic budget telephoto zoom, offering a long 75–300mm reach in a lightweight, easy‑to‑use package. Fully compatible with all Canon EOS film and digital bodies, it remains a popular choice for wildlife, sports, portraits and general outdoor photography.
