Re: Lens Issues with canon 70-200 f/4 IS

I am a relative beginner, & I have this lens on a 7D, & have to say, this is one of the worst images I have seen with this lens. I was thinking, maybe a focus issue, but the whole of the frame is fuzzy. How long have you had the lens, is this typical of the result you are getting? 1/1600 should all but eliminate camera shake, but as one poster has suggested, try it on a tripod, man focus, IS turned OFF, mirror lock-up & timer delay.
