    Hi, great video. I was thinking it would be more worth it. I have a Canon R10 and I want a telephoto lens for animals. I automatically thought of the RF 100-400mm. Native and with high focusing speed in addition to the low price (in my case 600 euros). On the other hand, there is the option of the sigma 150-600 contemporary, with a higher price (800 euros) + adapter (70-100 euros). What do you think is more worth it, losing those important mm in bird photography or the focusing speed in addition to perhaps other problems you have for not being Native?

    Hi Matthew, I am retired and shoot Landscapes as my hobby. I use this lens with my R5 and it’s fantastic. From my experience I found sharpness at 400mm to be good. I used it on Macro shots and it works great. I also have the RF15-35 2.8 and the 24-70 2.8 which are sharper, but at a cost. I have planned the trip of life to Iceland next year and taking this lens as my third lens and leaving my 70-200 2.8 at home. Thank you for your video.

    Having most of the groundwork done in the original photo makes editing easier. There are limits to what can be done in post-processing, and the filter will eliminate a lot of work that might not turn out how we want it to.

    Hi, I buy recently an r10 for replace old 1200d, I have the sigma 18-300 with adapter and I like it because I can use in every situation. Do you think rf 100-400 could be better in every situation from 100mm to 300? I have find one used for 400 swiss franc.

    So your "soft" mountain photo from that beach shot can be many different things for why it's soft. It doesn't mean it's the lens, although the 100-400 is known to be softer in the higher focal range, it could be the weather, the atmosphere, haze, etc. Your praises of the lens though are spot on.

Have you decided on what to get yet? I’m also interested in what camera you are using. I’m assuming a full frame as you mention the reach? The r10 has a crop sensor so the reach will be multiplied by 1.6 which effectively makes it a 160-640mm lens. As for your question, even though I have 0 camera experience I think I build quite some knowledge over the pst week and can snwer your wuestion. The tele concerters have a huge impact on the aperture of the lens, combined with this lens at 1.4x you’re looking at F11 on the long end and F16 with a 2x. From what I have seen, this is really really bad. So wouldn’t recommend

      Hi Corrie from the Netherlands😁 Well I have a R6 with the RF24-105L and the RF100-400 5.6-8. I'm aware of the fact that an extender will make to lens slower amongst other things. About the camera, it all depends on your shooting style and often comes down to budget. If budget is a thing I think and you are into birding a crop sensor could be interesting due to the magnification. Have you seen the comparison between the R10 and the R7 from Mark Wiemels on YT? To be honest it's almost impossible for someone else to make the decision for you@@Corrie50
