Canon EF 400mm f/2.8L IS II USM

the weight difference is the only reason I got this lens. I've used both and cannot see much (any?) difference without a multiplier.

With the new 1.4 III on it, it is definately sharper than the previous combo. I'm not a pro either but would not have been able to capture some shots that I have if it was not for the hand holdability of this lens. I really like it.

Thank you for your feedback! I appreciate it! I think I really have to start saving and perhaps get this lens by the end of the year hopefully...

Thanks Trek and Phil

Also used the 1D4 and 5D2 as well. Wondering if I should pursue the 1DX and 5D3.
