Harv said:One of my early images with the new 100-400 on my 5D III. Lot's more where it came from but wanted to share at least one.
This Red-tailed Hawk was on a fresh kill and allowed me to get to within about 30 feet of it without showing any agitation. This is still close to a 100% crop. I framed the original image to include some environment as well as it's meal of Eastern Grey Squirrel.
ISO800, f/5.6, 1/250 shutter speed, 271mm.....
Thanks for looking.

Great shot Harv. Well done.
balvert said:Very nice. Not sure how you got so close. Great shot and a great lens. I can't get over the detail in the feathers on the shots I have taken so far. Glad I made the investment.

Some great stuffs I have seen with this lens. Thanks to you and Harv for sharing.Kevin B said:I'm really impressed with the new lens. I have the original and was wondering if the upgrade was really worth and I've decided it is for me. Here's a very heavily cropped image taken with a 1.4X extender wide open (560mm F/8) with a 5D Mark III.
Freddie said:We traveled to warmer climes (Arizona) for a few days and the birds were good.
I was privileged to photograph a leucistic female Gambel's Quail, male Anna's Hummingbird, and a Verdin along with a desert Jack Rabbit.
All were shot using Auto-ISO, Canon 7D MK II, Canon 100-400 II, Canon 1.4X TC II, 1/1000 @ f/8 (wide open) ISO varied between 800 and 4000. Focal length was mostly 560mm.
The last shot of the two Quail is unsharpened.
Sporgon said:I just had a look at TDP crops of the new 100-400 and nearly fell off my chair ! The lens even stands up against the hallowed 70-200 2.8 II. 200 at f2.8 for a tight portrait or 300 at f5 ? Or 400 at f5.6 ? Looks like this is one expensive lens that I'll be forking out for.
