Well yes, but at ISO 100 you'd need a slower shutter speed than at ISO 400, wouldn't you?
Silverstone on Sunday.. 55-250 or 100-400?

Slower yes but it might still be fine at ISO 100. It all depends on the light on the day itself really.
Right i know what happened there.... the rain came near the end of the race i put my camera in the picnic bag ! Body isnt weatherproofed. When lewis came over i had to quickly get the camera out and i must have messed the iso up in doing so. Shutter would have been a lot quicker if i had time to react quicker.
Rest of shots are 100 -200 iso by the look of it.
Good God, the mk2 version is heavier than the mk1 ? I thought it was lighter for some reason.
I found it quite heavy tbh, and then the Tamron 150-600 is considerably heavier... I'm 5"11 with a medium build and got quite tired of hand holding the mk1 Canon lens, maybe I'm just too used to the comparative feather weight of the 55-250 lens.
It just affirms to me what a cracking lens the 55-250 is for the money, the IQ and AF is basically on par with the 100-400, it might not have the reach but when you take into account how light it is its pretty impressive. If only they could make a 400mm version that light!
