This lens is wonderful when shooting in adequate light. The lighter weight makes it manageable for long days shooting sports outdoors. I pair this lens paired with the R6.

I use this lens to shoot sports. Specifically pro baseball snd hockey. The focus is super fast and the lens isnt nearly as heavy as similar lenses made by other manufacturers. Big fan of this lens, would highly recommend!

This is a truly fantastic lens. I used it in Alaska photographing wildlife of various kinds, and it never let me down. I was able to get almost every shot I wanted, even from boats. The optical stabilization is stellar and despite the fairly narrow aperture, using auto ISO enabled me to get a great range of shots that I otherwise wouldn't have been able to get. It is a bit heavy, but not so much that it becomes too burdensome to carry, and having it at hand to get the shots I wanted was well worth the weight in my pack or in my hand.

Love it! Beautiful lens, I haven’t made a zoo or wildlife trip yet but it has been exactly what I hoped for. Very heavy for me but it’s to be expected… perhaps I will get a tripod
I am a pet photographer for myself and other breeders
And I had the chance to do a few photo sessions with it and it’s everything I hoped it would be, every whisker and every hair. You won’t be disappointed

This lens was a great addition to my Cannon 6 MII. I took it out for a test run to catch some birds and it easily managed the stability and autofocus.

This is a very nice lens that works well with my Canon R7. It would be the ultimate lens if it were 1.8 or 2.8. Low light just a little tricky need to bump up the IOS but overall great lens.

The lens RF 100-500 is fantastic. With 500mm it can reach enough far enough to shot wildlife/birds with good quality. On the other hand it is not so heavy and bulky as other super telelephoto lenses. Very happy with the new toy.

Purchased for sports photography and some wildlife.
This lens really produced excellent photos. Was able to zoom in really close and get the most amazing shots.
I would definitely love to check out other telephoto lenses from Canon at 800mm and up after seeing how amazing photos with this lens turned out.

So I initially purchased this lens weeks ago but that particular lens ended up having a manufacturer defect. No fault of Bestybuy. Kuddos to Bestbuy for a smooth return process. Even more kuddos to Bestbuy for having had this in stock! When other sellers have been backordered for months. Keep checking the bestbuy site as they randomly get stock. I lucked out & got the only one they received. This is an amazingly build & designed lens as you would expect from a Canon L lens. It’s super sharp at all of the lengths & focus is fast! This is one of if not my favorite RF lens next to the 70-200mm RF. I highly recommend this lens if you need that extra reach! & also recommend getting the RF 1.4X Extender with this! No loss in quality & gives you about 200mm more reach!
