Review Summary

I handhold this lens for bird photography. With my 7d mark 2 and 5dsr the images are stellar. It never seems to amaze me when I think a shot is unlikely and it turns out crisp and focused. I did my homework when I chose this lens and I never looked back.

I saved for many years to get a 400mm 2.8. When I was ready to purchase, the IS III was the latest option. I had rented the V1 and V2 of this lens in the past and I just couldn't believe how light it was! This lens is sharp and the focus is wicked fast.

Sampled a friends. Very sharp and light weight, but Sony is dominating with their A9 & A9-ll mirrorless cameras and full compliment of compatible pro lenses. Canon needs to get with it, because I know many former Canon users who have defected for Sony.

Besides providing superb photos during the day, this 400 mm lens with its optics and f/2.8 aperture is a good choice for taking images of the brighter objects in the night sky. The attached photo of Comet Neowise was captured with this lens.

I own the 400 2.8 IS v1 and borrowed this lens to use at the Indy 500 this year. It was tack sharp and 5.6 pounds lighter than the version I own. The weight savings alone makes this worth the upgrade. This lens was much more responsive than the original and made shooting without a monopod no problem.

Excellent lens. It is fast, sharp, better balanced and much lighter than previous versions. I’m so glad I made the move and upgraded from the Canon Series II to the Series III version of the 400mm f2.8L IS III USM telephoto lens!

I purchased this lens as soon as it came it and I have been using it for various sports events. I have been shooting varsity high school soccer games 3-4 times a week at different times of the day. This lens continues to shoot amazing shots no matter if it is a noon game, 5 o'clock game or an evening game in down pouring rain it will perform!

The price tag on this lens will clearly scare someone away but trust me when I tell you it is worth every cent! I love this lens and it’s a true work horse! I am heavy in my sports season and currently shooting varsity soccer. I have tested this lens and it has never failed me once! This was my dream lens and I finally own it, thank you Canon for making a great lens!

The Holy Grail of sports photography! The weight is incredible it almost feels fake. I have had for two weeks now and don’t regret anything about this purchase. Super fast focus and tack sharp images !
