The Pros And Cons Of The Cannon 6473a003 Telephoto Lens

By Marissa Potter


An EF series telephone lens, the Cannon 6473a003, is top of the line for its class. It has many uses for the casual, beginner or amateur photographer. Some of these uses include landscape shots, wildlife photography, portraiture, wedding photos, travel, and sports action shots.

As with anything, there are pros and cons to this model of lens. Different photographers have their own opinions about its use and the benefits. How it will used and the requirements of particular users determine whether they believe it is a good option or not. In addition, the skill and experience of the user may affect how they view it. A more experienced photographer might find it more suitable than does the beginner.

One of the pluses to this model is the fact it is very versatile, and is quite interchangeable, working with many different models of Cannon cameras. This makes it ideal for the photographer who likes to use more than one camera in particular instances. This one can be quickly and easily interchanged, meaning one lens will take the place of several. This makes it easy for the person who wants to travel light, carrying only one lens to work for different uses.

Being light in weight and durable makes this a great model for those who do travel and sports shoots. It is rugged and very strong so can withstand being dropped and treated roughly. These are pluses for choosing this model.

Even with all the pluses for this model, there are some negatives. One negative is the problem with focus. Some have claimed the focus is slow and blurry. In low light, its performance is less than stellar, according to some. The focus under low light is poor, with some AF hunting and lens creep.

Though it could or could not be a con, this lens is designed to be used by amateurs and beginners. This means it is easy enough to use, but may not have the features needed for more heavy weight use. This may also be the cause of some of the poorer reviews, as the beginner may be experiencing difficulty that is not the result of the lens itself but of their inexperience and lack of skill in its use.

Observing some considerations before making a decision to purchase will help you make a more informed choice. The purpose it will be used for is one thing to consider. This will mean being better able to compare models based on equal qualifications. Searching online and comparing similar traits will help get the best price for your selection.

Another consider for deciding on the Cannon 6473a003 is to decide whether or not you want to buy used. A used one is much less expensive, but you are not sure how it was cared for. It may have been dropped or scratched or damaged in some other way. Buying new will cost more, but will more likely insure you get a perfect product and have a warranty in the rare event of a defect.
