I have also heard that the Canon 100-400 II is a really superb lens. Part of me would love to 'upgrade' to it, but I'm not sure I want to part with the Tamron yet O** O**

Right I tested a 100-400mk11 today, Boy is it fast compared to the sigma 120-400 I was using, nearly as fast as the 400 F5.6. Placed it on the 5D with a 1.4 extender and there was a major difference in speed, They say that with the 7dMK11 there is not much difference, I noticed it straight off -O- . Will be testing it in the days to come on tracking and focus speed. So far so good \O

Taken with the 100-400mm MK11 on a 5D

Only had 7m to pick him up, focus and shoot as he came around the building at full tilt, like I said it is quite fast :yes:
