I have no idea what this means, but from my research it appears that the D700 has a full-size sensor (e.g., a 100mm lens = 100mm lens) whereas the D300 has a smaller sensor so you get the 1.5x effect (e.g., 100mm lens = effectively a 150mm lens for photography). I may be a crass philistine for saying this, but I *like* that 1.5x thing with my lenses. :-) Dave T.

And since the sensor is physically larger (though the same resolution) with better quantum efficiency the low light performance and noise figure is MUCH better. Full frame is very nice for wide angle lenses.

Quality is 10 on a scale of 10. The glass is perfect. Cosmetically it is perfect. It is functionally perfect. Light, but solidly built. Portable. Excellent handling. Sharp and amazingly fast autofocus. The 400mm f/5.6L is all of these things, and a premier choice for wildlife and nature photographers--one of the finest telephoto lenses in the world for fast-moving subjects such as birds in flight or motor sports. It uses UD-glass elements to provide outstanding optical quality, even wide-open, and image quality is preserved when used with either the EF 1.4x II or EF 2x II tele extenders. It accepts 77mm filters, and has a built-in removable tripod collar. The lens comes with Canon?s original hard leather case. * EF mount; super telephoto lens * Fluorite and Ultra-low Dispersion-glass; internal focusing; full- time manual focus * 400mm focal length * f/5.6 maximum aperture * Micro UltraSonic Motor (USM) * Lightweight (2.8 lb / 1,250g) Sent from my iphone -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
