Very useful zoom range and the IS feature allows to take images in dim spaces such as cathedrals. Acceptable performance when combined with a Canon 5D and a 580 EX II Canon flash. When the lens is used with this flash, the zoom range of both are automatically matched. Only real shortfall I find with this lens is vignetting at f 4 that almost disappears by f 8. A similar fall-off occurs when used with the 580 EX II when the lens is set to f 8 and 24 mm. But in this situation, the fall-off is due to the Flash which really does not cover a full 24 mm lens angle of view. Focusing when used with the flash in dark areas is not always accurate.

I have a 500 mm that seldom use do to its size and weight. I also used and considered the 400 mm 4.0 DO but passed on it due to the 300 mm f 2.8 opening and that when used with a 1.4X becomes a 420 mm f 4. The lens is about 7 pounds when used with the 1.4X and the 40D camera; found it quite easy to handhold for extended periods of time. Autofocus with the center sensor and AI servo allows for more succesful in focus captures than with the 100-400 IS and for that matter also the 70-200 f 2.8. As for sharpness and bouquet, it surpasses all my other Canon lenses. Highly recommended.

The Fujifilm IS Pro is the next generation of UVIR compatible DSLR and is built on the same platform as the FinePix S5 Pro digital SLR system. And like the S5 Pro is compatible with Nikon F mount lenses and Nikon iTTL flash systems.

This camera is more suited to the point and shoot needs of of forensic or scientific photographers, yet retains some of the basic features that made the S3 Pro UVIR so popular. The technology designed into the Fujifilm IS-1 was initially designed for traditional visible wavelength imagery. However, the natural low noise signature of the Fujifilm Super CCD produces high quality high resolution images within a limited band of Visual to Infrared. Because of the wide range of light spectrums captured, focusing and exposure are often done manually. However if enough visible light is available auto focusing will work. Unfiltered color images will retain a pink hue due to the added presence of increased red and infrared light captured. A great deal of this cast can be eliminated by adding a hot mirror filter or UVIR cut filter to remove the presence of IR light.
