Canon 100-400 IS L + Tripod

[RyanEustace]

Hi

I was just wondering how many of you use a tripod with a canon 100-400mm IS L, or if you feel its easy enough to get sharp photos handheld?

Thanks
Ryan

should be able to hand hold easy.

I've recently got one myself and so far I'm happy with the handheld results although I've shot many motorsport so it's been high shutter speed or slower panning shots using the IS. HTH.

I mainly hand hold mine and unless the light is not so great I have always been very pleased with the results and I don't often feel the need to take my tripod. The only one thing I would say is it can get a bit heavy if you plan to carry it around all day!
