The-Digital-Picture.com have reviewed the new Canon EF 400mm f/4.0 DO IS USM lens.

“Contrast is the Canon EF 400mm f/4.0 DO IS USM Lens’ optical shortcoming. I found that most of my shots needed some healthy contrast boost in post-processing (or a positive in-camera contrast setting). I could easily tell which image was taken with the Canon EF 400mm f/4.0 DO IS USM Lens when looking at comparative shots on a monitor. The 300 f/2.8 IS has much better contrast than the Canon EF 400mm f/4.0 DO IS USM Lens (it is still better with the Canon 1.4x Extender installed). The Canon 100-400mm L has somewhat better contrast when the vignetting does not get in the way. Low contrast is by far my biggest dissapointment with the 400 DO.”
