Great Canon L series long wildlife lens for very sensible money.

We all know the Canon 100-400 L IS Mk-ll is a much improved lens over the Mk-l.

However, considering the cost of a good used Mk-ll the Mk-l offers excellent value
on the S/H market. The image quality is still very very good especially if used just shy
of the full 400mm capability, say 390mm.

The image stabiliser is not the best IMO. but better to have something than nothing.

The trombone style zoom takes a little getting used too, but should be very smooth on a good lens
and the locking mechanism should function correctly to allow various levels of friction.

Watch out for damaged or misaligned optics, dust or fungal spots inside the lens. The Mk-l is not
as weather sealed as the Mk-2 this is a potential issue for not only rain, but debris entering the lens.

A clean, unmarked well looked after lens, at a cost of £600 - £650 should give a very pleasing result on the right body, and should satisfy all but the very picky amateur, or ardent professional.

Superb lens for the price.

This lens is sharp, even wide open and into the corners. I have used the original version for some time and this was well worth the upgrade in every way. I use it mainly for wildlife and even with my 1.4x mk2 converter, its still extremely sharp and I have not needed to do a microadjusment on my camera. Maybe I was lucky on this setup. I use it on a 7D mk2, and it seems the perfect combination. Great value, optics and robustness. You won't regret buying one.Read full review

An amazing lens

This lens does not disappoint in the slightest. Good focusing and very sharp images. Great focal length range on a full-frame sensor, and would give even better reach on a crop sensor. Loving it.

All in one lens

A fantastic lens pin sharp on the Canon 7D MK1 very light for a big lens lighter than the 70-200mm f/2.8 if you see one at a decent price Buy it .

Wanted a 100-400L lens...

Wanted an L Series 100-400mm lens for a while, and now I have one from this dealer. Lens seems in near perfect condition, and is has a nice balance on my 7D MkII body. The lens is fast focusing, and feels great in hand, and I’m very glad to have found the lens, and bought it.

Canon EF 100-400mm 4.5-5.6 L IS USM II

This is a pro lens with rapid autofocus, weather sealed and works a treat with my adaptor to the R6. It is in excellent condition and as described.

Fast, responsive and sharp images.

Brilliant lens. Fast, responsive and sharp images without the need to sharpen in Photoshop. The twist mechanism is much easier that the push/pull on the mark 1 version.

Flexible and powerful lens

I need a lens that can give me a wide range of focal lengths without having to swap when photographing moving subjects such as wildlife. This has almost everything I need (I would like it to have a lower F number but I can dream) whilst producing good images at both ends of its range. It is heavy but a tripod is not essential. Image stabilisation works well as does the adjustable stiffness zoom ring.
I am happy with this purchase at a good price.
