SLR Gear has tested the Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L USM super telephoto lens. This lens has an excellent reach for wildlife photographers and I’m really envious of Canon users because there is no such lens for Olympus.

SLR Gear ends up giving the Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L USM lens a very good review. The lens is able to produce sharp pictures, but not as good as the newer high end lenses from Canon. The lens also lack image stabilization and that can be a downside when you are out photographing.
Overall this seems like a very good wildlife lens if you can live without image stabilization and do not need faster apertures.
