Re: EF 400mm f/5.6L USM image quality

I have since bought and promptly returned the Sigma 100-400mm too. Having to shoot at ISO 1600 all the time and IS that doesn't seem to do much (better than nothing for sure but I didn't get a single sharp enough photo out of it) doesn't cut it for me.

Right now I am buying 70-200 f/4 II from someone 2nd hand for almost too good to believe price. I figured 400mm wasn't enough for birds and animals further away anyway, and 70-200 is much more versatile for other purposes.
