Just got mine today!! Whohoo.

Took some closeup shots of our cat. Will post something a bit more original when I get out and about. Very happy with it. Love the detail in the Cats eye.

Wow!! I really completely missed that this lens could take a photo like that. Guess I better get out there and really try using it at minimum focus distance.

Just curious if anyone has experienced this I had the camera on my truck seat the other day when I grabbed it I moved the focus ring quite a bit when I went to focus it wouldn't I had to hit the focus button a few times it seemed like it was getting jammed . So I set up some soda cans set it on a tripod and focused no issues then I proceeded to unfocus it and the same thing happened it wants to focus but it's like its getting jammed. If I move the focus ring say a 1/4 turn it focuses fine if it goes further it takes a few times to get it to focus it doesn't matter if its in AI Servo or One Shot 100mm or 400mm.
Thanks
John

I can say no John, I've never had that happen. On the 7DII I have now sometimes it will not focus at 400mm even after 4 or 5 pumps and I have to back it off just a smig,.....

I haven't experienced this phenomenon with my 100-400 Mk2. I mainly use mine on my 7D2 which I assume is what John is using.
