thanks! Always good to know what the vulnerabilities of an expensive piece of kit are. I will have to develop my technique to avoid that failure mode.

I find it remarkable that you're taking advice from someone who had to ask you if it was the ''trombone'' as he put it. Canon doesn't make any other 100-400s, something I would have thought he knew. Take it from someone who uses this lenses every day, never heard of this problem, which is strange given its supposed to affect 10% of these lenses.............. and never had the problem. Go out and enjoy your lens, don't baby it.
