Could you test the IS please : 560mm @ 1/30

(4 stops slower than focal length)

Thanks

The only thing that will stop me buying this lens will be if Canon release an update to the 300mm L F4 IS in the next 18 months.

Yes, ive had one of those, it was ok, focus a tad slow and the IS wasn't that great, really do like the new 100-400 though.

Im sure it will drop a few hundred in the next 5 months.

I found myself having lots of lenses , and never knowing what to take with me or pick.

How long did it take to deliver from that seller? I am eyeing up another product from them.

Ordered Monday morning, got it Thursday morning, they are pretty good, they have a website, stuff is a bit cheaper on the website, not sure if postage free though.
