Bought this lens before a long vacation in South Africa. Should have practiced a bit before going (obvious, right). Lens autofocus works great where the background is relatively simple, but my poor 60D was overworked trying to give me the correct focus point in a hurry where there is tight background and fore-ground. I need to work on the transaction between auto and manual focus. My gripe regards the backpack which after this one trip is starting to lose a strap. Considering the majority of the weight inside is this one lens (its heavy), that should not be happening.

The free polarizing filters and such are very bad quality so do not even attempt to put this on your lens. The condition mine showed up and looked like they had been scorched. The glass was not clear and there were blemishes all over which will screw up your pictures. Instead purchase some decent filters like from B+W for this lens.

I am a hobbyist photographer, so this is not a technical review of this lens. I LOVE THIS LENS! I purchased it for the sole purpose of taking action photos of our grandsons sports teams and it has performed flawlessly. As my grandsons aged, I found myself getting further and further away from the action and unable to capture the close-ups that I desired -- this is no longer a issue with this lens. The photos are excellent! (For you pros I suspect that this is rating is simplistic, but for me, it is spot on!) Expensive, yes....but how can you put a price on these memories!

Digital goja always provides fast service - not the first time I have received my order early. Ordered this lens after borrowing an older model from a friend while my Tamron 600mm was in for repairs. I like that I can focus on things closer to me - shots I would have to back up for with my Tamron. My husband is now using this lens and I dont hear nearly as many complaints from him about the lens not focusing as I did when he was using my Tamron 55/300 lens. His only complaint is that he finds it difficult to focus on the birds when they are flying overhead. Not sure if that is a lens issue or a photographer issue.Overall, we are both very happy with this lens.

Great lens - used it on vacation on the beach and got some amazing bird shots with a 6D. It also focuses pretty close, and I got some nice close-in humming-birds and dragonflies which looked really nice - as good as any of my other L Glass :)

This lens rocks! The image stabilization works (I use mode 3) really well. I use this lens for wildlife shots and it brings the subject very close without any odd distortion (and it doesnt spook the target). Of the added items in this Kit I used the filters (good to have a UV to protect the front of the "real" lens). If you are looking for an excellent quality lens this is a great choice! I even get good shots of birds in flight!

I Absolutely LOVE this lens.. I’ve been shooting with a Canon 28mm by 300mm for 11 years.. The Canon 100mm by 400mm is comparable in weight.. Yes, they are both heavy.. I wanted the extra reach that this lens provides, especially when it comes to large events.. Birthdays, weddings, graduations, beach shots.. The real beauty of this lens is i can stay on the outside of the crowd and reach right in there.. The photographs are amazing!! A big THUMBS UP to this GREAT lens!! The extras provided with this lens is a nice touch..

Had the old version and loved that, THIS new version is a great improvement over an already great lens. The added bundle is a nice addition as the lens appears to be fair traded and this allows a bit of a bonus. Very nice mono-pod, cleaning stuff is typical. The wireless cable release is a nice idea but doesnt work with my 5DMkII. The order was promised by Tuesday and arrived a day early in perfect condition. Digital Goja produced as promised, what more can be said. Thanks!

This was a Christmas gift for me from my hubby! I love it! I am learning how to use it and took amazing pictures of the SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch yesterday. The lens and all useful accessories arrived in perfect shape, on time! I am a happy amateur photographer!
