It is not a 'great' lens, it is a fantastic, exceptional lens on tripod or handheld with a high shutter speed. Well, my sample is anyway. On APS-C 40MP (adapted on Fuji X-T5).

As most modern cameras will give you excellent image quality at 1600 ISO or some at 3200 ISO, and the 400/5.6 L is perfect at full aperture, I am a little bit puzzled by your disappointment.

I'm also puzzled but its a 13 year old thread LOL.

I own both the 135 f/2 and the 400 f/5.6 and the 400 is definitely sharper.
