This revolutionary and versatile wildlife lens has been released. I have taken delivery now and have written a preliminary review of this production lens. Once I have put it through a few wildlife photo shoots, I will write a more detailed review. This lens is a wildlife photographer's dream when used with the EOS-1D X camera. Take a look at my review below. Keep checking back. MichaelDanielHo.com

Alright, you started it. Dueling Canines on the tundra. Don't you just love watching and photographing bears? Visit my website to see more Bear photography. http://MichaelDanielHo.com

Wow, what a shot. Amazing photography from an amazing lens. Love the photos on your website and the review of the lens. Apparently EISA agrees.

Dang, now I have to go out and shoot some more bears...not and unhappy thought.
Better hurry up and find more bears. I just came back from a Polar Bear shoot in Hudson Bay. The EF 200-400mm f/4L and the EOS-1D X are performing nicely for me. Visit my website to see more photos.

Bring me along, either one of you guys. I can carry the gear and spot the wildlife. So jealous of your trips and equipment.

Hi Michael, Thanks for your update. I am heading to the elephant seals at Ano Nuevo this week myself (if I can kick this cold), but will be bringing my 100-400 4.5 L IS with me. I am saving up for the 200-400 ...someday. Did you use a tripod while shooting? I use a 5D Mark III for the body...love that camera!

I have just returned from a whale photo shoot in Maui. Put the EOS-1D X, loaded with the Firmware 2.0.3, through a vigorous field test. The camera and EF 200-400mm f/4 lens came through with flying colors. It locked on the breaching Humpbacks with little difficulty, even in minimally contrasting scenes. Read my review of the lens here. Because I was riding in a fast moving zodiac, using the EF 200-400mm handheld was quite a challenge since the combo weighs about 11 pounds. I have to rest often since my arms get tired easily. http://MichaelDanielHo.com
