thank you Prwin
here the CHF is so strong... we have a lot of opportunities....
maybe not really the purse
there is another one 200-400 with an extender 1,4x included... much more expensive

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

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

. Will be testing it in the days to come on tracking and focus speed. So far so good

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
