Choosing among camera lenses filters becomes easier when you decide what matters first: a broad everyday zoom range, a long 420-800mm focal-length range, or a dedicated 85mm portrait format. These four Canon-oriented choices also split between stated autofocus availability and manual-only operation, so the best fit depends on how you want to focus as much as what you want to frame.
Quick take
The listed prices run from USD 55.63 to USD 157.91. The Sigma AF 70-300mm is the pick for shoppers who want autofocus stated alongside a 70-300mm zoom range. Both 420-800mm choices target the longest listed focal-length span, while the EF 85mm f/1.8 Portrait Lens is the distinct fixed-focal-length option. The two 420-800mm listings share several key details, including new condition, aluminum exterior material, 67mm filter/front compatibility, and Canon compatibility.

Product notes
Sigma AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG Macro Canon EOS
This Sigma zoom makes sense for a Canon shooter seeking a 70-300mm range with autofocus stated in addition to manual focusing. Its 58mm and 62mm compatible filter and lens-front sizes also set it apart from the two 67mm telephoto options. The lens is listed in Excellent - Refurbished condition and has a plastic exterior, which is the key tradeoff against the new-condition alternatives in this group. Choose it when the stated autofocus capability and more moderate zoom range are more important than extending to the longest focal lengths.
420-800mm f/8.3 Super Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon EOS DSLR Camera
At USD 72.58, this new 420-800mm f/8.3 Super Telephoto Zoom Lens is a direct long-range option for Canon EOS DSLR camera users. The listing specifies an aluminum exterior, 67mm compatible filter and lens-front size, and a 420-800mm focal range. Its clearest reason to choose is that combination of new condition and the long stated range at its listed price. The compromise is at the wide end: the range begins at 420mm, whereas the Sigma zoom begins at 70mm. It is a focused choice for shoppers who specifically want the 420-800mm format.
EF 85mm f/1.8 Portrait Lens - MF for Canon EOS Rebel
The EF 85mm f/1.8 Portrait Lens is the dedicated portrait-oriented choice, with Canon EF and Canon EF-S mountings stated and a six-elements-in-six-groups lens description. Its fixed 85mm f/1.8 format is the concrete reason to choose it over the zoom designs here, particularly if that listed portrait-lens configuration is your goal. It is also new. The important limitation is fully manual focus: the description identifies it as a non-autofocus lens without electronic focusing contacts. Choose this one for its specific 85mm f/1.8 design, not for autofocus operation.
autopartsking 420-800mm f/8.3 Super Telephoto Zoom Lens
The autopartsking 420-800mm f/8.3 Super Telephoto Zoom Lens has the lowest listed price in this comparison. It is listed as new and includes the same 67mm compatible filter and lens-front size, aluminum exterior material, and Canon compatibility described for the other 420-800mm option. That makes it the straightforward selection when the long telephoto format and the lowest listed price are the priorities. Its limitation is manual focus, so it is not the match for a shopper specifically seeking the Sigma's stated autofocus capability. The title also identifies the lens as f/8.3.
Final recommendation by use case
For a Canon-compatible zoom with stated autofocus availability, choose the Sigma AF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG Macro. For the lowest-priced route to a 420-800mm telephoto lens, choose the autopartsking model. The USD 72.58 420-800mm listing remains a separate new telephoto option in the same focal-range category. If your priority is a fixed portrait lens rather than a zoom, the EF 85mm f/1.8 Portrait Lens - MF is the clear match.
