FWIW I agree with John on the Bokeh. Even for busy backgrounds it is really pretty good, but there are some situations, like circular highlights that is is not so nice. Overall though it's been batter than I thought it would and actually the only lenses that I have that are much better are the 135L and sig 85. I think overall I prefer it to the 100L bokeh.

I use a combination of 500 f4 L (mk I) 1.4 II TC and 5D Mk Iv for most wildlife.

Would like to hear from friends here and look forward to a discussion on the topic with possible pros and cons.

If any discussion on the same topic has appeared here (in this forum) or some place else, please provide a link.

As requested, here is another current thread covering exactly the same lens comparison:

.

"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".
