This is a popular lens for photographing wildlife and birds. The images are wonderfully sharp from edge to edge. It works well with extenders, but you will lose the autofocus. This is a good choice when you need superior sharpness and a longer reach but can’t be tied down with a larger, heavier lens. It is relatively light at 2.8 lb and is a very well built L series lens. We compared this lens with the Canon 100-400mm EF IS f/4.5-5.6L IS for image quality at 400mm. The images were equally sharp in the center of the image, but the 400mm f/5.6 maintained the sharpness into the corners much better. The images also had a bit more contrast and vibrant colors.
