This obviously isn't a lens that's on everyone's shopping list but, if you're a pro who's been looking for one, trust me, NOW is the time to buy it!
Canon RF 100-300mm f/2.8L IS USM | was £11,499.00 | now £10,349.10 SAVE £1,149.90 (Wex) This astonishing lens delivers pro-level prime performance in a telephoto zoom. And it's also compatible with teleconverters for even greater reach. It's pricey, but we awarded it five stars for good reason!
For my money, the Canon RF 100-300mm f/2.8L IS USM is the fourth "trinity" prime lens. But don't take my word for it; my colleague Matthew Richards gave it the full five stars in his review:
"In keeping with the asking price, performance is simply spectacular. Image quality is easily as good as most pro-grade prime lenses, if not better. Sharpness is scintillating throughout the entire zoom range, even when shooting wide-open at f/2.8. Equally importantly for many photographers, bokeh is deliciously smooth and dreamy… All in all, it’s tremendously versatile. Image quality is to die for, more like you’d expect from a collection of top-notch primes."
