Canon 100-400mm f4.5-5.6 ii IS Review from the Galapagos Islands
To see the full-sized images I shot for the review of the Canon 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 II IS lens visit www.brendansadventures.com/rev...
I was really glad to get the chance to borrow a Canon 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 version ii lens from Canon for my trip to the Galapagos Islands. And, since the lens is still very new, I thought I'd give it a review. In general, I was a massive fan of the Canon 100-400mm lens. I think it's far better than the former version of the 100-400mm lens by Canon which I actually wasn't a fan of. This second version of the lens, however, is not only much easier to shoot, but it's extremely sharp, and the image stabilization on the lens is tremendous.
Of course, if you want to see the full-sized copies that I shot with the lens, head over to Brendansadventures.com and have a look. This is my last episode from the Galapagos Islands, now. I have a bunch of other cool destinations coming up, though. So, stay tuned.

You sold me on this lens, Brendan. Good job on the video. Thank you!
this was an intelligent and well executed review of this lens, and it placed the "focus where it belonged; on the lens and its performance, and not on the reviewer! well done.
Great review Brendan .... I have only had this lens for a week now and everything you say about it is true ...
Thank you very much for this detailed Canon 100-400 lens review, which included really useful advice about how to take advantage of it's unique feature set: image stabilization and focus options, etc. Just returned myself from the Galapagos Islands, Quito and Mashpi Lodge in the Ecuador Cloud forest: highly recommended. My modest camera advice for others traveling to the Galapagos is to consider bringing the inexpensive DxO ONE with an underwater case for snorkeling videos (standalone) and low level light shots when attached to an iPhone as my wife and I did on our trip.
Great review, and great pictures. I have the lens, and I agree with you all the way, the lens is amazing. Only thing you forgot to mention is the AF speed, which is mind blowing. Keep up the good work!
This was EXACTLY the video I needed. I literally got handed one 30 minutes ago for a shoot later today. Thanks, man!

Great review and Kudos to you for getting out there and living your dream dude. This will be my next lens for sure have been using a 50-250mm stm kit lens I got with my 700D/ T5i rebel with pretty good results. National Geographic Australia confirmed today by email they are going to publish one of my shots in January on there website. I really want to be in a similar place to yourself in a year or so. Love your videos you are inspiring and the real deal. Thanks for sharing your insight and wisdom is appreciated
Mode 3 is designed to initiate only when the shutter button is fully pressed, and not a constant (like when half pressing the shutter release button).
That was an excellent review! You really covered the essential details (we're all worried about the speed of the lens) and supported your conclusions with actual images. You didn't waste my time with a lot of 'subscribe, hit the like button, post a comment' and describing what you're going to discuss ad nauseum before you got to the point. Just at the moment I was considering selling my 70-200 2.8 USM IS lens, you mentioned that you were thinking the same. Truly an excellent, to the point, review. Thank you!

Very informative, I learned things from your review on this lens that I hadn't heard before and it makes me want this lens even more then I did before. I hope one day I can get this lens.
thanks for this great review
Glad to see you were able to get the lens in your hands for the Galapagos trip. I have only used this lens once over a weekend to cover a track event. I started off not being too thrilled with it, in all honesty. But that was because I came in with a pessimistic attitude from the first version. After day 1, I had already begun leaving the 70-200 in my bag. By day 2, that was all she wrote for me! haha I was head over heels in love with the new 100-400 and added it to my list of "must have" lenses. Glad you appreciated the minimum focusing distance as well. That was a pivotal discovery for me when I realized this lens could achieve so much. Here's something that will absolutely BLOW your mind as well: attach the 70-200 on the 6D and the 100-400 on to the 60D and you have 70-640mm covered in two lenses and bodies. Probably not something you do often, but for my track work, it's absolutely going to be killer. Oh, and the image stabilization was incredible as well. You can fight it as much as you want and it shrugs it off. Very impressive. Any reason why the video back on the computer was so pixelated? Looked like a live stream from a webcam.

+Kevin DiOssi Yeah, if I trusted the 60D more at higher ISOs I would have done just that. But, I really found myself not needing more than 400 in the Galapagos. As for the screen, it's pixelated because the stupid program I'm using to screengrab the video kept crashing and I had to drop the quality to make it work. I've got to find a better solution to that program. It's killing me.

I rarely need more than 200mm now and only shot 4 races this year. So the lens would have been a waste for me. I think I'll keep rent again until it picks up.

The “pump action” zoom on the 28-300 is actually very easy to use and allows for quicker zoom changes. And yes, when you have a lens that versatile that can take both wide-angle and telephoto shots and everything between, you want quick adjustability. The push-pull design comes in quite handy. Do I prefer it to twist zoom? No. But it still has its advantages.
Love the video

You were impressed with the overall sharpness, as you mentioned several times. Does that mean the sharpness didn't waiver from one focal length to another, or was the focus sharp throughout? My sigma is razor sharp at 400mm, but goes softer and softer the closer you get to 100. I HATE it. I want something that is tack sharp throughout the focal range. Thoughts? Also, what were your findings regarding low light shooting with this lens? Some reviews Ive seen have mentioned it gets lost regarding focus under low light. Thoughts on that as well please.
Loved the video... Nice review. Thank you for this.. Do you think this is a good piece of lens to invest for landscape photography?

Thanks for the review. I am debating this lens. I have had the 400mm prime f5.6 for years. This version 2 lens finally caught up to that lens in terms of sharpness. If you don’t need the zoom, the 400 prime will blow you away and not your wallet lol. There are circumstances where a zoom is necessary though. I also have the 70-300 L lens so I could perhaps sell that one and get this. Definitely 300mm is way too short for most wildlife. Still, I think the 100-400 zoom is SLIGHTLY less sharp than my 400mm prime. Tough call though
Did you know you can tighten the lens where it wont slide down ??? I had one for many years and I love it ! It also works well with the Canon EOS R 5 camera...
Great review! I'm upgrading from my old 70-300mm 4-5.6, right now I'm really divided between the 100-400 MK2 and the 70-200 2.8 MK2... I need a telephoto in my gear, I'm divided because its a $100 difference between them, I love and need a telephoto in my gear, I'm not afraid of the f/4.5 (I've done miracles with my old 70-300) but I don't know, I really wanted to see a review of the 100-400 on the city, maybe a zoo not only open wildlife spaces, darker places... Decisions!
I hear reports of substantial focus breathing with this lens.would you comment on this as I'm a newbee and trying to decide the birding potentials of the 400 5.6 vs. this lens. Lots of green separates these two, and I wonder if the gives and takes between justify the money. Thanks.
ahhh i can't wait for mine to arrive.. and to go somewhere and shoot some amazing pretty creatures :D
great images man!
What camera body do you recommend with this lens. I’m waiting for this lens to arrive and purchased the 6D Mark Ii to complement this lens. Is there a better choice for a body? I have 14 days to return it. I was questioning myself for not buying the Canon 100-500. Your thoughts? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Great video!
Nice very informative review. Thanks!
Great review, thank you. I used this lens along with a 1.4 teleconverter on my 7D Mk II in the Kruger park a few months ago. I really enjoyed using it but am struggling to get sharp focus of the eyes of eagles in flight. I have been using the image stabilization in mode 1. I wonder if 2 would have been a better option for hand held and shooting from a stationery car window? At 560mm (400 x 1.4) I find that I need to shoot at 1/800 or faster with an iso of 1000 or higher in bright sunlight. My results are ok but they are not spectacular, any advice would be appreciated.

Brian Holder I have the first version and use it with an 80D. Both lens versions don't let in much light, especially with an APS-C sensor and teleconverter. So you'll always need to crank up the ISO, or use a tripod and longer exposures (for non-moving subjects). I had similar sharpness problems as you even without a teleconverter, so I highly recommend you to walk or drive closer to a subject (if you can) and avoid the converter at all, especially with a non-full frame sensor. The IS 1 mode stabilizes in all directions, whereas mode 2 only does it in the non-moving axis, i.e.: if you pan (horizontally or vertically), use IS mode 2, otherwise mode 1. When on a tripod, turn IS off altogether.

The original 100-400 was a push pull zoom because that system is simpler mechanically. Thus smaller, lighter, cheaper to manufacture. I do like the new one, and prefer the twist, but the reason for the push-pull is pretty obvious. I've never heard it called a pump action, but that sounds awesome. 2:00 The little door on the hood is useful for still photographers who also use ND filters, but also polarizing filters. Never used a polarizing filter???

I have the mark I and upgraded to the mark II recently and haven't had much time to use it yet but I am confident it will be a great lens on my new 6D and my old 70D and 1D mark III.

Wonder if you have any experience using it with 1.4 extended?

Great review! I'm heading to the Galapagos in a couple of weeks and questioning whether to bring this lens (100-400mm II) or my 70-200 due to the closeness of the subjects. After watching this I'm leaning towards the 100-400. I see you are on a tripod or mono-pod. I wasn't planning on bringing either. I did not need one in Africa but the subjects were further away. Do you recommend a mono or tripod for the Galapagos?
@BrendanvanSon
7 жыл бұрын
Take the 100-400mm because of the macro-ness of the lens. Big difference. Yes, bring a monopod. Probably no need for a tripod, but getting so close to the animals you'll probably want a monopod for sharpness.

Brendon, I shoot a 7D Mark II and purchased this lens. I absolutely love it! You mentioned many times about shooting f6.5 to f7.1. I do a lot of bird photography in shutter priority for in flight stuff and I have pushed my aperture up to f11 many times with excellent results, especially for static shots within 3 to 4 meters as long as I had good light to work with. Do you consider f6.5 to f7.1 the sweet spots for this lens or is that simply your preference? I live in Florida where I have good light most of the time...
@BrendanvanSon

f/11 is good if there's not a lot of movement. But, I found this lens to be at it's sharpest right at f/7.1 o f/8 actually. But, if you don't need the speed, f/11 is great too. I'm a big fan of a really shallow depth of field, though. So, I actually tend to shoot closer to the f/5.6 range.

Excellent review: what a fantastic experience in the Galapagos. On my bucket list. I have just bought myself this lens for Christmas!! Just for information, IS mode 3 only works at the point of pressing the shutter button or as per manual "MODE 3: Press the shutter down halfway to initiate computation of stabilization, then press down all the way to enable stabilization". It functions as per manual: "Corrects vibration only during exposure. During panning shots, corrects vibration during exposure only in one direction the same as MODE 2'" The advantage? Again as per the manual "Since camera shake is stabilized only during exposure, following a subject is easier such as when shooting a fast and irregularly moving player during sports photograph." Which setting were you using for the subjects on the Galapgos? Did you switch IS off on the Tripod?

Very good review. One of the best field reviews out there in a short video. Maybe you can post an update. Been researching this new lens. I'm not a pro. I'm not making money from my photographic efforts and development expectations. I do it mainly for my own enjoyment after my retirement. So photography is a wonderful and expensive hobby. I enjoy my wide and normal lenses. But I want more reach. I'm really close to convincing myself to spend the money. Good glass is good glass is good glass. The pricing of this lens seems reasonable for the Canon quality. We are not talking $10-18 grand for a long lens when I'm not making money out of it. So as long as I don't break it my widow can sell it after I'm done and gone. Do I need more convincing??.
