According to our camera lens expert
The Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L USM is 1 of the super telephoto lenses that belong to Canons' L series. This lens is specially designed for professional photography. It has a fixed focal length, which ensures the maximum sharpness, with the least amount of deformation. This sharpness is manufactured by the Ultra Sonic Motor. (USM) This works silently, but super fast. You'll be amazed how sharp the lens is able to focus, while you can barely make out the subject with the naked eye. The shortest focal distance is 3.5 meters.

best teleke I have, the 5.6 isn't a drawback for me, and it's a lot cheaper than an f4. super fast autofocus and crystal clear! light enough to pack on a hike.
Highly recommended for anyone interested in nature photography

I bought this lens as a successor to the standard lens that came with my Canon EOS 450D (Canon 70-300mm lens). I mainly use the lens for bird photography.
I already knew that this lens would be better than the kit lens, but I didn't expect the difference to be so big. The image is really so much sharper, brighter and richer in contrast that it continues to amaze me. This lens is known as one of the best (if not THE best) lenses in its price range for nothing.
It goes without saying that I am very satisfied with this lens. So far I have not been able to discover any negative points about this lens. An absolute must for the 'serious' hobby photographer.
The handling by Coolblue (on all fronts; speed, customer-friendliness, handling and of course the price) also deserves a big compliment.

Great lens that gives beautiful results: razor sharp and beautiful soft backgrounds (bokeh). Shooting hand-held is no problem at all in normal sunlight, especially if you accept a slightly higher ISO value. The relatively light weight of this lens ensures that you can easily walk around with it all day long. If it is very cloudy, or around sunset, you have to take into account that there is no optical stabilization on this lens, so you either have to increase the ISO value faster, or use a tripod to take still pictures. Overall very satisfied with this lens, highly recommended!
