Just received my rental in the mail. Man, this thing weighs a ton. My 70-200 f4 feels like a toy compared to this thing. It came with a filter which of course I will remove before using. Looking forward to two weeks of vacation and seeing what this lens can do.

"weighs a ton" ???
100-400L - weighs in at - what 3.04 lbs ?
Sigma 50-500 OS - 4.33 !
Even my Sigma 70-200 OS weighs more than the 100-400L...

Sounds like the 100-400 L is pretty light.. Anyway- enjoy the lens..

I have had a 100-400mm for about a year now and I simply love it. I also use it on an XTi with Canon grip.
