Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens Review

This eagerly awaited telephoto zoom lens replaces the old 100-400mm lens in Canon's lineup of professional lenses. Its predecessor was popular due to its relative compact size, light weight and good value for money. It sports a zoom range of just 4x and a maximum aperture of f/4.5-5.6 and differs to the old lens by not using a push-pull zoom mechanism, which was often criticised for sucking dust into the camera and offering poor weather sealing. This lens is sealed and Canon state that you can confidently shoot in poor weather conditions as a result. It also includes a four-stop image stabiliser, and costs around £2000. In this review we'll take a look at how the lens performs.
