(BTW does the prime have IS) I was in the hide in Fineshade Woodon Friday,  and a guy walked in with a 150-500 Sigma, that he had been using a month and was verypleased with it. We both took pics of the same bird, he had a 400d on the end and mine a 450d, hispics looked much sharper than mine. I know apples and Apples I was using a 70-300 mm canon.I am starting to wane again over which lens to choose, can someone post some pics on here forthe 400 prime, I do want sharp sharp pics, so help me make up my mind again ........It must be the length of the  Sigma  lens or something ( Falix Symbol )BTW Current price of 400mm prime from IK is £675 + postage</blockquote>
