In reply to Harlz, 8 months ago

Hartz,

I have used the 400mm f/5.6 with a 25mm extension tube for dragonflies with good results. I do not have the 100mm L macro yet, so I can't give you a comparison. The 100mm L macro is on my wish list for my next lens purchase.

Wow, 400 f/5.6 with extension tube, nice! I've thought about this combo for shooting dragonflies but I am reluctant to try with its lack of IS. I normally try to move in real slowly with the 100mm macro but it's hit and miss.
