Needed something longer for Soccer. My 200 1.8 with the 1.4x was nice, but not long enough all the time. Had a hard time deciding between this and the 300 2.8 but with the 200 already, why waste my money? If you are shooting soccer or football, even baseball, this is the lens.
Pros:
- Super fast, IS is great if you need it
- Super sharp, maybe not as sharp as the 200 1.8, but for the additional length, so what
Cons:
- NONE..............So its a little heavy.....Do you want the shot or not

Canon EF 400mm f/2.8L IS II USM [REVIEW]
As I normally shoot travel and landscape, with occasional product shots and weddings, it's not often I play with the big guns. You know, 400, 500 and 600mm lenses. But with the help of BorrowLenses.com , I was able to borrow and shoot with a Canon EF 400mm f/2.8L IS II USM in Alaska for two weeks.

Incredible
Razor sharp, faster than a speeding bullet and built like a tank. Should come with a gym membership (heavy) but all that weight has an upside. The most amazing photographs you could imagine capturing.

Canon EF 400mm f/2.8L IS II USM review by cmosbum
The long wait was definitely worth it. I just got the lens and it matches my expectations based on Canon's MTF curves. Each of my Canon bodies (5DMkII & 7D) require microfocus adjustment to extract full sharpness down to f/2.8.
Pros:
- Tack Sharp
- even with the 1.4x and 2X III TC's
Cons:
- Price
- Even Less Weight would be nice
