According to our camera lens expert
Novice sports and nature photographers have been satisfied with the versatile Canon 100-400mm for years now. With the second version of this lens, Canon shows that it belongs in every camera bag. Canon got rid of the push and pull zoom system and replaced it with the more conventional rotating zoom ring. You still have the option to adjust the resistance of the zoom ring. This means that every sports and nature photographer can adjust the accuracy of the lens to their liking. Another important improvement is the image stabilization. As you can expect from a real sports lens, the EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM now has 4 stabilization stops. As a result, you can take handheld photos in many more situations.

The sharpness of the photos with this lens is unsurpassed. I use the lens on a 1.6 crop sensor camera, but there are absolutely no visible imperfections in this lens. What is also important to report; the sharpness lasts over the entire zoom range, so not just at the extremes. In practice, the IS really gives a good 3 to 4 stops extra.
I really can't think of any negatives for this lens, apart from the too high Canon price (which we are used to).

Super happy with this lens. Much sharper than the lens I had before. Also lighter, so easier to shoot handheld. I mainly use it for wildlife photography. For that he is completely worth the money. The main reason why I hesitated for a long time is that the zoom function only goes up to 400. However, because the quality of the images is so much higher, extra cropping afterwards is no problem.

Perfect & efficient IS function (4 stops of gain). Nice pictures even at 400mm. Easy to operate. Efficient Auto-Focus. Compact considering the range. Largest aperture not perfect 4.5-5.6, but for this kind of telephoto zoom...
