The Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens offers professional grade build quality, fast, accurate and quiet AF, very effective image stabilization and very impressive wide open image quality over the entire and very useful 100-400mm telephoto focal length range. Downsides? There are very few, but some may find the price high and the weight heavy. However, if the alternatives are compared, neither the price nor the weight are bad for what you get with the 100-400 L II.

Over the recent years, it became almost a bit of a running gag when one of the various rumor sites stated once more that "the refresh of the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 USM L IS is really imminent now"! Well, it wasn't ... till the end of 2014. To be fair, other than the diffuse feeling that something has to happen, there wasn't really too much pressure for Canon here anyway. Quality-wise, the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 USM L IS was always at the top of its species and the only really dated aspect was the IS (image stabilizer) which is just good enough for 2 extra f-stops. But yeah - here it is: the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 USM L IS II. Thus enjoy finally! :-)
