Is it heavy? oh yeah, you are going to want at minimum a good strap. Will you need good light? Oh yes If you are cool with that, this lens is awesome and really fun to shoot with. For around 2K, you are getting a lot of glass. Primarily when you take long distance pictures you will be fighting some atmospheric distortion effects, otherwise, your goal is to fill the frame with as much detail as you can, and with this lens, you can certainly get there. The barrel zoom is kind of annoying, however, for $2K, again, you are going to get some tradeoffs. I have mine paired with an R7 with a crop sensor, took a couple of these pictures last weekend in some ideal lighting coonditions. Judge for yourself.

Absolutely terrific. For the money, it’s a great, sharp super zoom for the R Bodies. I use this extensively for kids sports, including soccer, baseball, and cross country. The only criticisms I have are completely nitpicky. When attached to a monopod, it’s a breeze to shoot all day. It’s light enough to handhold, but it feels a bit awkward because it’s so big. Again, it’s great great great!

I really only bought this because it's slightly faster (brighter) at 800mm than my existing Canon RF800mm prime lens (f/9 versus f/11). This costs about twice as much as the RF800mm, but Canon have an even faster RF800mm f/5.6 prime that costs almost 10x this, hence I feel it is good value upgrade from my existing 800mm f/11. I had already used that prime lens to photograph full-frame moon pictures, plus pictures of Jupiter with the Magellanic moons visible, Saturn with the rings visible and Mars with some surface relief visible using my 30MP full-frame Canon EOS-R and the Canon 2x teleconverter. The 2x makes it effectively a 400mm to 1600mm zoom which is up-to 32x magnification and better than most telescopes would be without magnifying eypieces. But, the field of view is only about 3 degrees without the teleconverter and 1.5 degrees with it which is admitedly very narrow compared to a telescope. Nevertheless, this lens has a focal length that can extend as far as basic home telescopes. The visible planets are about 1% of the frame area on my 30MP full-frame Canon EOS-R making the camera meter unusable for exposure but that's just a matter of better "exposure guessing" gained from experience over repeat shoots. The lens is too heavy to handhold usefully, but works well on a tripod. The zoom range is good enough to permit having it wide at 200mm for broad scene observation then zoom in on a specific object of attraction, e.g. long range wildlife shooting. The zoom tension can be adjusted to allow zooming with low force and minimize disturbing tripod alignment too much. I'm attaching two photographs. They are the same mountain top taken minutes apart at between three and four miles distant to the East in the evening before sunset. The poor quality one is from my cellphone camera's 100x zoom mode but with the phone on a tripod, the better quality one was with this Canon lens using a 2x teleconverter, on my Canon EOS-R. I estimate there is about 25x as much detail in the scene taken using this lens, you can see individual tree trunks, branches and more with this lens at 32x magnification whereas there's very little detail in the phone pic at 100x magnification. If someone was hiking you would be able to tell a person was in the shot with this lens. The reason for the better detail at 32x magnification (teleconverter 2x included) than with 100x magnification on my phone is that my phone zoom crops and expands a section of a 12MP sensor output if the zoom is more than 3x. Doing the frame math, I'd estimate this lens with the 2x teleconverter still has a 30MP camera sensor, whereas my phone at 100x zoom I estimate is equivalent to a 1.2MP camera at 33x magnification. The detail in the strata of the rock at the peak from this lens is much better, you can barely tell it's present in the phone picture. There's other nice detail, the rock at the peak is geographically tilted, raised at the left, lowered at the right, you can see it in the full camera shot from both the angled rock strata and the fact that the trees grow vertically, regardless of their floor. In the phone shot there's no quality to any of the trees that permits deducing that. I'm really looking forward to trying this lens when Saturn is easier to view in two months. I should be able to get pictures again where the rings are visible as I did with my slower RF800mm f/11 prime lens. Another advantage of this over the Canon RF800mm f/11 is the aperture is adjustable on this lens but is fixed at f/11 on the prime lens. Depth of field adjustment is possible with this lens (minimum focus distance is 2.6 feet at 200mm and 10.8 feet at 800mm) so consider wildlife at a quarter mile on a bright day instead of my planetary and 3 to 4 mile distant mountain tests then use of depth of field artistically seems possible plus the full automatic exposure isn't limited to setting shutter speed. In a bright enough scene you can reduce shutter speed and let the aperture compensate, also making for potentially better exposure compensation and bracketing results. It's only detail but this comes with a lens hood and the RF100mm to 400mm zoom and the RF800mm f/11 don't.

I've only had this lens for about a week, but I've taken about 100 photos of our animal friends feeding in the rock garden. My early impressions of the lens: - It is heavy, but manageable and I can handhold it for about 15 minutes with the camera to my eye before I have to set it down. - At 800mm, even in "okay" light, I need to turn on stabilization and when possible support the lens on a tripod or improvised support (a stack of books worked great today as I sat at the open window) - I am using it with the R6II, a camera I do not love. It's very much still winter here so I haven't set up my blind yet, and shoot instead from a window in the house, maybe 30' from the rocks. At 800mm I have almost enough reach, but in the end do crop the images a bit anyway. I am now debating getting a R7 for that extra reach without losing so much resolution, or maybe an R5 where shooting at 1.6 crop I still get an image around 17mp. I feel like with this lens, the more resolution, the better. - I have had some trouble with focusing, especially at 800mm. Part of that is definitely user error, part is lack of familiarity with the lens and, honestly, Servo and focus screens on the camera (I do not typically photograph fast moving small objects at a distance). I think the lens is sharp enough, and hope to improve the hit ratio as I better learn to use it. Still, I've got quite a few shots I am happy with. - I think it is a pretty amazing value, at least when compared to what else is available. If you need/want the reach, this is your lens. - The plane photo: this commercial plane was passing over the house WAY, WAY UP THERE. I quickly just aimed over my head and let it rip. At 4+ lbs and 19" of barrel extended at 800mm, holding this over your head to shoot is not easy. Stabilizer really saved the shot here. - The other shots were all taken from a basement window. They've been cropped out of necessity, maybe cutting out roughly 1/4th of the available full frame size. Not bad, but more than I prefer to crop. Again, I am shooting from at least 30' away, and these are small animals. - It's no secret, you will need fairly decent light with this beast, especially if it is hand held and the subject is moving around. ISO's will be high, but most cameras handle that well these days. Hey, Canon: color me impressed! I look forward to doing more with this lens and seeing what else it can do.

If you're looking at this lens, it's for the 800mm reach, probably for birds and wildlife. I just got it and took it out for some birding. I used it on the R7 for a 1280mm field of view on the long end. I'm happy with how it performed. Autofocus was speedy and performed well. I'm coming from a first version EF 100-400. So that's all I have to compare the autofocus to. It was faster and more accurate. But not by miles. F9 is not great but that's the trade off and you know it going in. You're going to have to use high ISO. Today was overcast but I was able to stay at ISO 1600 and get nice shots. Of course it would have been better with more light, but with the great IS of the lens and R7 you can get by with a lower shutter speed. The female Norther Harrier was shot at 800mm f9 ISO 1600 1/640. It was pretty still on the perch so it worked. If it was in flight I would have needed ISO 3200 at least, and even then have to work to get a good shot. So yes, f9 is something you'll have to work with. If you use it on an R5 or 6 it will be better but then you'll loose the reach of the R7. You'll probably need noise reduction, I use camera raw and while it's slow on my PC the results are good. None of these images used it though. Overall it's a great lens and I had a great time using it today and look forward to many more days of fun with it. There's no other way to get this reach for anywhere near this price. If you want something faster, get this and rent a 600 f4 or 800 f5.6 for a day to get it out of your system. Then enjoy the fact you can carry this around and use it all the time.

Pretty good so far, nice clear pics, good reach. Sometimes focus is off a bit, haven't figured yet if camera/lens issue or just haze when on full zoom.
