As a door stop - excellent
As a toilet brush - lousy
As a means of transport - lousy
As a means of attracting women - only the ones you would rather avoid
As a contraceptive - only if used in a percussive manner

Absolutely. You could batter someone to death with it, and the lens wouldn't show a mark. Plus, the push-pull zoom action means you can turn it into a longer baton when you need to deal with foes who are bigger than you are.Also very usefull as an assaul weapon.

Stephen - I considered this lens for sports photography - my kids, mainly. I liked the range but was put off by the lens "speed" - having been used to an 80-200 f2.8 L.
Many find it good for wildlife photography. There are loads of reviews on the interweb thingy.
I'd imagine it's not much use for banging nails into a wall - some of my old metal lenses are great for that.

Hi Stephen
I think if you explain what you want it for, you may get a better response i.e for motorsport, aviation, wildlife, sport etc, the sort of distance you will be from the action etc.
Good luck
No, that's just an urban myth. We have more than 20 100-400s and they're no more prone to dust than any other lens.A friend has one - its full of dust.
Apparently it sucks the dust in due to the push/pull action :shrug:
