Re: EF 300 f/4 L IS opinions

I definitely understand about being on a budget.  I had the 300mm f/4L IS years ago and overall liked it.  With the 1.4x it isn't bad at all and even gives you a tad more FL than the Sigma 100-400.

maybe I got lucky with my Sigma 100-400C as I really like it a lot.  In fact I like it so much I sold my Canon 100-400 mk2 after getting it.  That isn't to say that the Canon isn't better but the difference in performance wasn't enough to justify the price difference to me and I liked the lighter weight of the Sigma.

ultimately you have to figure out what works best for you.
