I got the 75-300 USM almost immediately after I got my camera, and bought a
second-hand 300/4 L a few months ago (got a very good deal on it <G>).
Although the prime lens is heavier and not as versatile, I can see a
difference in the quality of my photos.

If you think you'll be taking most of your photos at 300mm and you can
afford it, I'd recommend the prime lens.  But I still have the 75-300 --
don't use it much, but I'll admit there are times when I need the range.
