chaps ... am very intersted in swapping notes on the 100-400.
Hoping to buy one ready for the IOM TT and Le Mans the week after ... i understand there are both an f2.something and an f 4.6 available ?
Weight of camera and lens may also be an issue ... any comments ?
cheers, dave

There's no f2.8 100-400. There is however a 400 f2.8 IS Prime, if you want to sell a kidney go for it

It's not a heavy lens by any standard. I can hand-hold mine on the 20D with Grip and 2 batteries all day with no problems.

Hmmmmm tempted with the Sigma..... Almost bought one earlier this year but didn't in the end. I assume it's the EX DG version?
