None at all. All right, a bit heavy. The best lens for wildlife photography- especially birds. Extremely sharp. I love this lens so much that I even got a 2nd one!(used) Customer Service Not very good in TAIWAN. Similar Products Used: Canon FD 500/4.5L Canon FD 800/5.6L Leica 400/2.8 APO |

Strength:
Extremely sharp, fast focus, handles well
Weakness:
None Probably as good as any supertelephoto ever produced until Canon announced the new IS lens. Still there are features on this lens that the new one doesn't have and will be missed. Customer Service Excellent at CPS. Similar Products Used: Most Canon L lenses |

Strength:
This lens is a SUPERB supertelephoto. The user selected three-range MF feature is VERY useful (too bad they dropped it in the new IS lens). All the L-series lenses are extremely well built...and this one's no exception. When used with the matched Canon 1.4x and 2x converters is creates a flexible, fast and SHARP combination for wildlife, sports and other applications needing "big glass." NOTE: The new IS version of this lens mean a lot of the older lenses are offered on the used market at reasonable prices (about $6k).
Weakness:
This lens wiights about 14 lbs.! But all the big lenses are heavy, just be aware of that before purchasing! A fantastic lens for sports, wildlife, etc. Customer Service Canon has great customer service! Similar Products Used: EF500/4.5 |
