Opinion:
A very good telephoto lens with an average circulation of high F2.8 brightness . Those with extenders and crop factoor body 's above average telephoto reach fetches a good image quality . Suitable for virtually all work areas when it comes to capturing details. Consider sport, portrait, landscape and wildlife .
Also easy to handle despite its weight with a shoulder strap you can walk the whole day .the sharpest lens I ever had..
With 1.4 converter still sharp , with just under 2.0 but still usable .

Opinion:I recently bought this beautiful lens kept in a maniacal way, it has no sign anywhere. The price is very interesting for an optic, yes old, with a sharpness and a speed of AF excellent( it is clear that the newer models are better but this does its duty perfectly). I use it for sports and nature photography, attached to my 1DX makes very good. Good with canon 1x4 II multipliers while slightly losing sharpness with canon 2x III but the AF speed is always very good. Even without IS does not create major inconvenience because it is very stable as a structure and you can use safety times without too many problems, I did the test of 9 photographing a game of Rugby under 17 in the evening and with the lights of the field almost non-existent, open everything to 2.8 and used smooth has produced excellent images taking into account that I had to take most of the photos above 10,000 ISO for the lack of light, a bit of grain is clear but in those conditions he gave his best.
Opinion:I use it with the Sony A7RIII via adapter so the AF side doesn't guarantee me the same performance as a canon body, however the AF is reliable and fast enough. Sharp side solves the 42 megapixels already at TA well to become very sharp already at F3.2. An excellent optics. Weight is important and the age of the project makes it difficult to find spare parts. The lack of stabilizer makes it difficult to get under certain shooting speeds by penalising situations with little light. Obviously if you buy such an optics today it is because of the affordable price despite the performance from F2.8 line L. Still a valid choice.
Pros:Sharpness, price of the used, smooth and multiplied speed
Cons:Given the price of the new or used I would say only the weight
Opinion:I bought it used at a good price . I use it with the kenko 2x pro glued night and day. The quality is excellent and quietly compares with optics that cost as much as a studio apartment. Considering the production date and for those who can't spend so much this is the alternative to have a 300 2.8 excellent and a 600 f5.6 multiplied by quality that from the best to f8 and a soft hair to 5.6. I replaced my 400 5.6 just because I'm a shed photographer and because 200mm more i'm comfortable. Not recommended for traveling photography because of its weight that makes itself felt especially with pro bodies. The stabilizer at that price can't be asked at all but thanks to its brightness and the possibility to match pro bodies that can travel even to 3200 iso with excellent quality I would say you do not miss it because you can use times of Security.
Opinion:I bought it used three years ago and it's really great. I used it for sports photography (football, rugby, minirugby) both smooth and with extender (1.4 II and 2 III). The quality and the AF are really good and precise. The sharpness is almost upsetting and remains good with the 1.4, while losing a bit with the 2x. It's a real tank. I accidentally fell into the water about 3 years ago while photographing the fooches. Brought to repair, disassembled and cleaned the lens is back again and works perfectly.
