The Canon 100-400mm II is a MASTERPIECE - The BEST Wildlife Lens Under $2500!!!

[@xxOzzie63xx]

Fantastic review, we have the Sigma 150-600mm C on a Canon 90D, after using it this weekend at an airshow, I was very disappointed with the auto focus and also the weight too, trying to track very fast moving aircraft, it was an extremely tiring day with such a heavy lens. So seeing this video, am seriously thinking of upgrading to a Canon 100-400mm mk2 lens. Thank you.

[@mnieuwhof]

I own an 90D and a 6D-M2 and the Sigma performs much better with the 6D... seldom get good (sharp or less soft) images with the 90D and the Sigma... I'm also looking to upgrade to this Canon lens...

[@parentingtheinternet6999]

Was this a good upgrade please! I have hit the same issue

[@Tapirrr]

​@@parentingtheinternet6999im getting the 100-400 ii today for my r7, currently got the 150-600 sigma and its not sharp + slow, same for when I had a 5d mk4. I think the sigma performs better on a lower megapixel censor.

[@MartyBecker]

This lens is popular in the airshow photography area too. Pairs great with the cropped sensor, 7D II with high fps.

[@tomaskoeck]

I bet it works really well with that pairing

[@leolavelle7495]

3 years later and this is the best lens review ive found. only recently got into photography and ur bird shots have me eager to get out. great review great shots too. earned a sub

[@danielson_9211]

Had this lens loved it, traded it when I went mirrorless for the 100-500, now in love with the new one. The 100-400 was great, I too tried the 600 f/4 and not having that zooming option drove me nuts, but if you know you going long range that 600 is incredible.

[@rpvideos4118]

Hey do you know if this lens works well on the Canon mirrorless cameras? I heard from someone that this lens might not work the best with a Canon R mirrorless or that the autofocus is not great when paired with mirrorless?

[@lightonthelandscape]

Pretty impressive shots wide open. Nicely done Tomas. I have this lens and love it. I find on stop below wide open is a tiny bit sharper but not super noticeable. This is also a super useful landscape photography lens. It doesn't work so well with the 1.4 extender unless at F11 (and is still touch softer than without). One of my favourite lenses (and I have a lot to choose from).

[@tomaskoeck]

Really appreciate it!

[@RolandGaenssler]

I'm using that lens (combined with an EOS 5DIII) for insects like dragonflies even when they are in flight. It's a very good lens...

[@sswildlifevideos]

Great review! I love the 100-400 II on the R5. I think the high resolution, fast AF, and ability to take the 1.4 III well make the R5 the best body for this lens. Unlike DSLRs the R5 doesn't require any AF microadjustments so it really makes the extender shine. The ability to shoot in apsc mode on the r5 and still have 17 mp when needed also is helpful for framing/autofocus when you know you need to crop a lot.

[@amateurphotographer1096]

One of my favourite canon lenses. I have purchased an R6 since and have been using this lens with the EF 1.4mk III extender. I recently purchased the 2xmk III which I owned before and sold after 1 day as it was pretty bad on the 5Dmk III. To my surprise it is reasonably sharp on the R6 and way way better compared to my experience with the DSLR before. Good thing about using this on r5/56 + the 1.4mkIII or 2xmkiii is the amazing high ISO performance of these cameras. With my r6, I am shooting at 12,800 or 16,000 and still get results that are surprisingly amazing! At iso 3200 these cameras would blow any canon DSLR except the 1dx series. And not to mention the amazing animal eye AF on these cameras that works really well with the 1.4mk III and 2x mk III...

[@sswildlifevideos]

@@amateurphotographer1096 Agree with all your points! The R5 is a strong performer up to iso 6400, and maybe even 10000, which is nice for a hi-res body. I hope we get some RF lenses like the 500 DO and 150-600 well below the 10000 dollar mark for a little longer glass!

[@amateurphotographer1096]

[@sswildlifevideos]

@@amateurphotographer1096 I agree the 100-500 is a nice lens but the image quality improvement is not significant over the 100-400 ii with 1.4x iii. Instead I'd rather save up for the R7 or future RF lenses.

[@amateurphotographer1096]

@@sswildlifevideos yeah i was on the fence whether i should upgrade to 100-500 but the rf 1.4 is very pricey as well. And as mentioned earlier too, i am very pleased with the 100-400 + 2xmkiii on the R6. I am sure it is not as razor sharp as the rf 100-500 + rf 1.4 but surely it saves me some $$$

I just bought a 400 mm Canon Prime L lens. I haven't received it yet but saw samples from this lens. It's known to be even sharper than the zoom, faster focus and lighter weight. And cheaper. And most shots in a 100-400 are at the max of 400 anyway! I'd rather have a 2nd camera that is ready to go for the closer shots!

[@ronwade6252]

Great review and the sharpness of the image of the loon is ridiculous.

[@LowBlow]

Hi it's a little misleading for the newbies when you show those initial images taken on the 90D (an APS-C body) and say you took the images at 400mm when in reality you took them at an effective 640mm focal length due to the 1.6x crop from that body. Imo you should put in the text on the image that it was an effective 640mm.

[@benskaar]

Outstanding video Tomas 👏🏼

[@tomaskoeck]

Appreciate it Ben!!

[@kyleheaser351boombaby]

If I'm understanding this and your other video correctly, if you could have only 1 wildlife lens, money not being a concern, it would be this lens over the 600? Given that you can acquire similar quality but with the ability to switch up the focal lengths. Great videos!

[@tomaskoeck]

Depends on you. If I could only have one forever, I’d have to go with a 600 prime for its sharpness and extra stop of light. But the 100-400 is not far behind.

[@ArnsteinBjone]

I've had it for a few years. It is an incredibly good zoom, but I have just "parked" mine..because I bought a used Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS II USM (2013, 3.200 USD). The relatively new upscale algorithm in PS ("Preserve Details 2.0") is so good that in practice I now also have a 600mm f/2.8 ...and even 800-1600 mm f/2.8 :-). I have done lots of tests on this.

[@tomaskoeck]

I’ve never used one with this lens because I’ll mostly shoot with a crop sensor camera like the 90D

[@izrailsky]

i ve tried 1.4x on this lens and results i ve got were not satisfying. In terms of reach sigma is absolute winner

[@rui7773]

A 400 melhorou muito em relação a sigma ? Principalmente foco?

[@robgerety]

If you are moving to Canon mirror-less and you have no EF lenses, should you go with this EF 100-400 with the adapter? Or, should you spring for the RF 100-500?

[@sswildlifevideos]

I have shot both Nikon and Canon and now recently jumped from the D850 to the R5. I went with the 100-400 ii because of the wider aperture at 400 and the fact that I got it for just shy of 1,900 USD vs 2,800 for the RF. I just got the 1.4x III TC on the way too. I think the RF 100-500 is great but couldn't justify spending that extra money - would rather pocket that towards the RF 400 2.8. I think you can't go wrong either way though!

[@diegoramirez6165]

I have the R5 using the canon ef 100 400 II with adaper and works perfect, instant autofocus and 100% full image quality. Highly recomend this combo and save money to get the canon rf100 500.

[@toonfishbrot]

Please don't think you need a full frame body to make good pictures! Especially for wildlife photography, an APS-C body (think Canon 90D, 7D, 7D II) will actually be better. A full frame isn't always an advantage. But doupdate your body for a lens like that; check out the Canon 7D, 250$ and amazing specs. Though, such a lens is probably overkill if you're atm using a 200D, so I'd rather get a less top-range lens, e.g. a 70-300 (L), before dropping 2k on that thing. :)

I was concerned about the build quality and weatherproofing, along with the slower f stop & focusing speed. Also wasn't sure how well it would stack up compared to L series Canon glass. Nothing else matters if one lens is significantly sharper than the other, IMO. The sharpness of this Canon lens in this video & another video I was looking at are WAY sharper than imagines Sigma uses even in their promotional material. I have a feeling this lens is so sharp, that it negates the extra focal distance of the Sigma.

One of my favorites lenses. Really really. LOL

[@tomaskoeck]

I bet! It’s a great lens!

[@izrailsky]

RF 100-500 is so much better in every aspect except the price.

[@tomaskoeck]

Doesn’t work on a dslr unfortunately. Maybe I’ll do a review on that one soon since I’ve started to shoot with mirrorless

[@romancotton8536]

@@tomaskoeck IMO its not that much better sharpness wise. Longer reach and better stabilization though.

I had one and could stay in focus. I sent it back twice and still no good

[@tomaskoeck]

Sorry to hear that I have not had that problem, what camera body were you using it on?

[@tomaskoeck]

If you read the caption as each photo shows you will see the camera body, for most it was a Canon 90D

[@klarion]

"output"... that's what we call it these days?

[@birdsbirding2150]

Wow...

[@DJBastor]

in liveview with servo mode the 90d has only 6 or 7 fps, right`?

[@Z1nt3k]

It's 7 shots/second using live view.
