T7i with a 400mm lens, Recommendations Please

Hi Folks,

I currently use a Sony a77ii and enjoy it. However, the long zoom lens selection doesn't suit me. I don't like the weight of the Tamron 150-600mm, 4 1/2#, and I don't like the fact that Tamron lenses are NOT stabilized for Sony cameras.

I am considering the purchase of a Canon T7i and a manageable lens with 400mm reach, and am willing to consider any lens that I can buy for less than $1000, used would be fine. My only requirements are that the lens be sharp at the 400mm end, and lighter than the Tamron 150-600mm.

Is anyone using the Tamron 18-400mm? How is it at 400mm?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Jack
