    Unbelievably sharp all the way out to 500mm. Shocked how good this lens is - not sure why anyone would need the 24-70mm 2.8 - it's that good. Love it. Can't wait to take it out west to the national parks this summer. It's also surprisingly small for a 100-500mm - it's down right tiny compared to the Sony 200-600 and even sharper. Canon magic!

    This is such a great lens to have if you like wildlife photography! I’ve been thrilled with the sharpness and overall look of this lens. It’s great on my R6 and crop sensor R7 bodies.

    Well, owning a 100-400 EF lens, I was hoping this lens would be just as good. Wrong, this lens is better, it takes great pictures, the clarity is spot on, I probably won't take this lens off my R5.

    I am loving this lens. It’s a lot heavier then I expected but I’m okay with it. I upgraded from the 100-400. Feels really well built. Takes great shots. I think the fun factor is worth the $$.

    I bought this lens to take better photos of birds. The advantage of this lens is that it is better for lower light and fast moving birds. I've taken some nice photos with it. It is lighter to carry but more fragile than the heavier lens. Be careful not to hit it on anything.

    This is an excellent telephoto zoom when you have good light. The minimum f/7.1 aperture at 500m is not as bad as one would think with the high iso performance of the new R series Canon bodies. I've found this lens to be an improvement over my EF 100-400 L series lens it replaced.
