I have heard a lot about the 100-400L having bad copies and I was wondering if anyone has had any "bad copies" of the 400L prime.
Thanks,

I borrowed my friend's 100-400 to test and it was similar to the one I sold earlier, so now I am going for the 400mm prime. Understand the new versions of that lens are somewhat better @ 400 - f/5.6 (John) CANON A590 iS - EOS 50D - EF 400mm f/5.6 L USM - EF 50 f/1.8 II - Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 XR Di II - Velbon Sherpa pro - SIGMA DG500-ST
