Not sure he really tried it, but this reviewer claims that he did: http://www.amazon.com …eID=172282&tag=&linkCode= 70D | Tamron 17-50 VC | Canon 50 f/1.4 | 70-200 f/4L IS | 100 2.8 | 100-400 L | YN560ii

I CANNOT believe anyone can hand hold a 35 pound lens and measures 2+ feet!!!! moreover, it lacks of image stabilization What did I miss? Does IS make any sense given that the lens is always going to be on a heavy tripod? 70D | Tamron 17-50 VC | Canon 50 f/1.4 | 70-200 f/4L IS | 100 2.8 | 100-400 L | YN560ii

EDIT: From the review: What did I miss? Does IS make any sense given that the lens is always going to be on a heavy tripod? Well, you might want something to compensate for the small earthquakes that it with might cause from the downward pressure on the tripod legs Canon5DIII + Some L + Some non L + Some Sigma + Some Tamron + other stuff....
