Re: $499 for the 100-400!

Yes, I think the RF 100-400 is probably a really great value ! For just a little bit, I was almost sure I was going to buy one > although I already owned the Sigma 150-600, I had had a LOT of focus pulsing issues with that lens, and a very low keeper rate. Since then however, I have learned about (and implemented) some changes both with firmware updates to the lens, as well as settings changes on my camera. Preliminary testing looks very promising. In back yard testing it feels like I've improved my focus hit rate, from maybe 15% to 80+%. I just need to get out and do more real world testing with it, to be completely sure
