I tend to use the 70 200 f4 with a 1.4 extender but for my usage it's too big to carry around so even though it's small, it's not much more bother to carry a 100 400 L.

If you always use the 70-200 with the teleconverter then you will probably love the 100-400.    I have the 500 5.6 for when I want to go longer and that lens is nice and light for a 400 if you can live without a zoom.
