The one at 3:08! Got the 70-200 2.8GM, reason being that i thought together with the 2x TC i'd get alsmost the 100-400 GM on top. Any experience with that?

I debated the 100-400 vs 200-600 for me I needed the extra range for subjects I'm shooting, might pick up the 100-400 in future as the 200-600 is a heavy beast to carry around all the time.
It’s such a versatile lens. The one thing you didn’t mention was macro type shots. The 100-400 GM has a short minimum focus distance so it is good for taking those detail shots on a small close subject also.
I got a Sigma 100-400 (contemporary) a few weeks ago, I've used it once a week (at least) since. Doing some sports and lots of cool landscape or subject shots. The focal length is perfect for so many things. It's a cool way to stand out and get unique shots. Super happy with it!
200-600 is one of my favourite lenses. I've been thinking about getting a 100-400 though, since I'm stuck shooting locally with everything that's going on, and the 200-600 draws a bit more attention than I'd like
Your videos are killing it, Chris! Between the sketch style reviews and to the point, zero fluff, amazingly well-shot photo videos like this I am tuning in to every video!
I shoot landscapes and when I first got into photography about two years ago, I always thought that I had to use my wide angles to get a good scene that shows scale. I found more often than not, the shots were hard to compose, as it can be difficult to balance an interesting foreground to an epic background. I borrowed a friends super telephoto and found that the compositions were a lot easier to get tighter compositions that were more mysterious and intruiging. You can capture the finer details of a scene and it adds to the story of a place. I bought the 100-400mm G and it never leaves my backpack... even on 15 kilometre hikes through the Alberta backcountry. It's such a versitile lens!
I love my 100-400mm, not only is it great for getting those distance shots, it works almost like a macro lens on the fly because of the close focusing distance.
I'm guessing this lens gets overlooked due to the fact that you can pair a 70-200mm with a 200-600mm to cover even more focal range without needing the 100-400mm. I currently have the 24-105mm so pairing it with the 100-400mm makes sense if 400mm is the most you need.
Point is less handy for travel, 200-600 is nice no doubt but the 100400GM+tc1.4 can be in my bag 100% of the time and i can shoot near macro (90cm focus) to 840mm with TC1.4 and in crop mode on the R4 (still 26megapixels no aa filter). For daytime i also use the same combo 1635GM+24-105g+100400GM+tc1.4 perfect for a small bag.
@@scb2scb2 That's true that it sort of depends on the bag you carry. The 70-200mm + 200-600mm kit has two large lenses and still probably requires another two for most traveling photographers and videographers, likely something like a 24-70mm + favorite wide aperture prime.
@@scb2scb2 Hi, which bag are you using? I am considering buying this 100-400 GM with TC-1.4, 24-105 F4 G & 12-24 F4 G with either A7m4 or A1. Can all this equipment fit in a bag which is 13" long 8" wide & 9" tall?
@@amitkrupal1234 For that kind of setup 3 normal lenses (say 1635GM, 24105 on camera and 90mm for example) on top so i can switch to all 3 and leave them on. And then the 100400GM sideways i use a lowepro 350aw for the 200600 setup or video gear i use the bigger 40% 450aw.
Bought this for wildlife in the Galapagos Islands... what I never appreciated about it until I had it is the versatility - from landscapes to wildlife, but also the semi-macro capabilities. Some of my favourite macro-style shots have all been made with this lens (which means I don't have to take the 90mm macro out on a walk). Always in my top 3 lenses.
That beat sync with the helicopter's red light is just epic!!! Pete taught me how to keep grinding, Mattih taught how to keep things fun and enjoy the process and you taught me how to be creative with little details man. Love it!!!
I have this lens on my wish list to pair with my Sony a7R IV. Great for zooming in on those distant images as you did but don’t forget this has near Macro capabilities too 👍🏻😉
I could not second this any more, I could live with 24-70 and 100-400 if I could only have 2 lenses for motorsports and wild life and even portraits, 400mm is so nice, if you shoot APS-C it's even more awesome, mind you with A7RIV resolution you can crop at 2x and still get 30mp at an 800mm field of view! 😯
one of my fav videos lately for the content. A lot of UA-camrs vlog indoors, this one is just unique after a year of quarantine. Good job dude! Love you and Lizzie so much!❤️
I literally was thinking last night about selling my 70-200 and purchasing the 100-400. I am officially taking this video as a sign that I am supposed to do that.
All the reasons that you listed that you love this lens are exactly why I love my Sigma 150-600. It is a big unwieldly beast but until I can afford the Canon 100-500mm It definitely gets the job done.
I was literally just sitting here telling m buddy I want a telephoto, but wasn't sure if I would use it enough for the price and then you go and post this lol
I shoot with that lens almost every day. It is my absolute favourite. What Chris didn’t stress was the amazing stabilization that allows shooting with the helicopter’s vibration handheld. I had the same hesitation about the price and I have never thought about that since.
Both the 100-400 and the 150-600 are popular lenses amongst nature/sport photographers especialy crop sensor users. Amazing compression and reach. You should give the Tamron G2 or the Sigma S 150-600 a try...
Only one word to add ... tc1.4 .... the perfect travel combo on a A1 or A7R4. Guess more words 100-400 is also perfect for 'macro' like shots since it can focus at 90cm. Shot images at 600+crop mode (26 megapixels at 840mm no aa on R4) and then within seconds went for a bug about 1 meter away.
Totally agree. Got mine 2 years ago when I traded in a 70-200mm f4. Never looked back. Use it for landscape, woodland, wildlife and macro. My dynamic duo is the Sony 24-105mm and the Sony 100-400mm. Camera is an A7Riii.
Hi Chris, your enthusiasm is clear to see for this lens. I'm now seriously thinking of buying one too, after reflecting on where my priorities ought to be. I have a 200-600 G which only ever comes out for specific events (mostly sports) when I know it will be worth the effort carrying. Whilst by no means compact I'm now thinking this 100-400 GM could make a great travel lens, bypassing the 70-200 option. Main downside is speed vs typical f2.8 default tele-zoom choice. I'm lucky in that I already own a lot of lovely glass, in zooms already having a 16-35 GM f2.8 and a 24-105 f4 G. I used to own a 70-200 Sony f4, but traded that for a Tamron 70-180 f2.8. Yet mostly I prefer primes when I can use them, but they are hard and slow to travel with. Taking about 5-6 primes is difficult, can be slow, inconvenient and lead to missed shots in trying to use when you don't know what you will be encountering. Like with my 200-600 they tend to be for specific events or day trips. The GM 135 f1.8 is lovely but limited in application. 90mm macro the same, also both hefty. The 35mm GM 1.4 is great for making subjects pop from a background. I'm also loving my 20mm f1.8. For astro and love of wide composition with a strong foreground. I had initially thought that a 14mm f1.8 (by all accounts excellent) would be my next lens. But I can shoot astro/landscape with my 20mm f1.8 or 24mm f1.4 so maybe a 14mm is overkill given my 16-35? Reflecting on never packing my 200-600 G for travel or 'just in case' use. I can see how a 3-lens travel kit comprising 16-35 GM, 55mm f1.8 prime and 100-400 GM may make sense. For me that would be considered minimalist and better than my typical approach of taking far to much.
I use the Sigma 100-400 on my a6400 with the MC-11 converter (Canon EF- Sony E) and that is my second favorite lens in my kit. It's so light and compact it fits nicely in my bag and I take it everywhere my camera goes. It's also about 3x cheaper then the Sony native.
After seeing all the amazing abd beautiful shots you were able to get with this lens, Chris, I am definitely setting my sights one one, as Landscape is one of the styles I want to experiment with in my own photography journey. usually when I'm in a sad, melancholy or depressed rut, watching content like yours, Peters, and Brandon Woelfels really helps me feel better and helps to inspire me enought to see myself achieving this as a career.
I use to shoot all the time on the 100-400, wasn't mine it was on lone, I can say it was easily one of the, if not, the most versatile lenses in my kit and I miss it so much! I look forward to the day we can be reunited once again.
Just been using the 70-200 mostly but this video helps to push me to think about the longer FL. Hey all you TO creators keep coming out our way to BC! Give us the heads up next time can show you other great locations to shoot!
I just picked up a used 100 to 400 for the Fujifilm X system on Monday, and so far I've really loved it. I'm glad you made this video for it, since I don't see a lot of people using a lens like this. Thanks man!
I am still an A-Mount man, using my trusty A99, which after all is just a mirrorless A-mount camera. I have a 70-400 4-5.6 SSM, but also a Minolta 100-400 4.5-6.7 APO, which when I am going on long trips, is so much lighter than the 70-400. Optically the old Minolta is very impressive.
My two passions; flying and photography. Excellent shoot! But there’s me thinking you were going to talk about my want to have lens. The Canon 100-400mm
I just bought the 100-400 gm and it arrives Monday. I can't wait..I also have the 200-600mm. The 24mm 1.4 gm. The 16-35mm gm. 90mm macro. Looking to.pick up the 85mm gm next.
I do agree every photographer should have at least one super telephoto it's just so enjoyable I have the stigma 150 mm to 600 mm contemporary and it's such a beautiful lens my Canon EOS R loves it
Good point about the difference from mobile photography. I own the 100-400mm and absolutely love it as a landscape lens. However I don’t agree with you saying it’s the best lens for wildlife; almost every Sony wildlife shooter I know prefers the 200-600mm for the great reach and internal zooming.
Sold! I just searched "do I need the 100-400.." I know I need* it, but thanks for the confirmation! And planning to go to Squamish this summer to MTB!!
As a transitioning focus on Landscape Photography, I've recently (a year ago) sold all my gear to move to the RF mount, which allowed me to evaluate my lenses. I've never had a 100-400 (had 6 lenses in total) but the more I thought about what I wanted in my bag all the time the more it made sense, with all the other gear I lug around my 2 lens choice was the 15-35 and 100-500. I have a few other wants for some specific things but I'll try this out for a while but I'm thinking it'll be forever.
thanks for shining some light on the f100-400mm. It's going to need all the light it can get.. The 400mm seems to still deliver the sharpness that the 600mm starts to lose.
I’ll cheers to that celebration Chris! I love my Sigma Art 100-400mm on the a7siii. It totally changes the way you see everything👌🏼In a really positive manner! Great video man.
For photos it's amazing, for video 100-400 is an overkill I prefer Tamron 70-180. And I just loved this video your vibes are awesome mate! Life returns!
So many people saying how expensive a 100-400 is, but probably don't realise you can get something like a much cheaper 70/75-300 and slap it on an APS-C sensor camera for similar results. The overall IQ and light won't be as good but you can get pretty damn close for a fraction of the price. I'm mainly thinking of Canon here because that's what I use, so a 70-300mm f4-5.6 brand new is like €550.

this is how much I love chris hau videos..Im already watching it after being notified the video was up for 5 seconds :)
Yoooo Bentley! The legend!! Great video Chris
I do agree every photographer should have at least one super telephoto it's just so enjoyable I have the stigma 150 mm to 600 mm contemporary and it's such a beautiful lens my Canon EOS R loves it
I'm taking Helicopter photos this weekend. It's going to be the 70-200mm for me.
Was eagerly waiting for this video !
Love You Bro
That's it. Saving up for the Nikon 100-400 S that is expected.
I bought it last month. It's fantastic. I highly recommend.
I have the 70-200 but bought a 2x tele for it not long after and love being able to get 400mm reach now for my wildlife snaps. Cool vid Chris :)
My favourite Lens all time!
You just made me think about getting the 100-400. never thought that would be possible :) thanks
Good point about the difference from mobile photography. I own the 100-400mm and absolutely love it as a landscape lens. However I don’t agree with you saying it’s the best lens for wildlife; almost every Sony wildlife shooter I know prefers the 200-600mm for the great reach and internal zooming.
Great to see you outside again
I use my 100-400GM on my A7RIV most of the time. It is a great lens.
Sold! I just searched "do I need the 100-400.." I know I need* it, but thanks for the confirmation! And planning to go to Squamish this summer to MTB!!
Gotta Have it!👍🏻
As a transitioning focus on Landscape Photography, I've recently (a year ago) sold all my gear to move to the RF mount, which allowed me to evaluate my lenses. I've never had a 100-400 (had 6 lenses in total) but the more I thought about what I wanted in my bag all the time the more it made sense, with all the other gear I lug around my 2 lens choice was the 15-35 and 100-500. I have a few other wants for some specific things but I'll try this out for a while but I'm thinking it'll be forever.
thanks for shining some light on the f100-400mm. It's going to need all the light it can get.. The 400mm seems to still deliver the sharpness that the 600mm starts to lose.
i drop my 100-400 GM 3 years ago.. finally got it fixed :D So happy :D
I like my 70 to 200 f4 because it zooms internally. Just got it by the way, and I'm so in love
Thanks for reminding me of the privilege of living in BC.
Can't wait to get out into the woods and mountains again.
I’ll cheers to that celebration Chris! I love my Sigma Art 100-400mm on the a7siii. It totally changes the way you see everything👌🏼In a really positive manner! Great video man.
Haven't watch this kinda video on UA-cam since last March.This is freaking beautiful..... And the colour grading on this video is 😍
The Visuals, The Color Grade, SOOO GOOOODDD 🤩👌
I recently bought 70-350 for my APSC Sony camera (equivalent of 105-525 for FF), not the fastest lens in the world, but man - I LOVE IT! 🙂
Glad you got to get out and experience our beautiful country again! Great video man!
This really has become one of my favorite lenses. I got this after hearing you and Lizzy talk about it on Pete's channel. Great recommendation.
My favorite lens by far. I love it and lug it everywhere.
The photos just look out of this world.... great vid!!!!
Every photographer does NOT need this lens. Notice how specific the use cases are? They're cool, sure, but very niche.
Man what an amazing lens and a vid!! telephotos are so amazing, those shots are perfect for phone backgrounds
My Sigma 100-400 DG DN OS for my a7Riii will be here in a couple of days, I can't wait!
For photos it's amazing, for video 100-400 is an overkill I prefer Tamron 70-180. And I just loved this video your vibes are awesome mate! Life returns!
I used to have a 100-400 but now I have a 150-600 ...love both
Really liked the mountain water fall video towards the end. Thanks for illustrating the 100-400.
Love the English bulldog. So cute
right when I am struggling between 70200 and 100400... thanks nice video
The Colorgrading Blow My Mind Chris Video Quality Is Superb. Kindly Tell Me where should I get these luts exactly the same or where can I buy
So many people saying how expensive a 100-400 is, but probably don't realise you can get something like a much cheaper 70/75-300 and slap it on an APS-C sensor camera for similar results. The overall IQ and light won't be as good but you can get pretty damn close for a fraction of the price.
I'm mainly thinking of Canon here because that's what I use, so a 70-300mm f4-5.6 brand new is like €550.
How did you take the shots of the helicopter tale while it was flying? This vlog was awesome (footage, editing and background music)
Great vid! Im so happy I got the 100-400. Always bring it for my landscape photography.
I had no idea I would be interested in photography before I found this channel.
