This is my favorite lens for zoo photography. I mount the camera and lens on a ball head equipped tripod. Keeping the ball head loose I can follow the animal as it walks around in its enclosure. When the animal holds still for a moment, I fire the shutter. The tripod/ballhead and image stabilization feature of this lens allow me to capture sharp images at much lower shutter speeds than would be possible if I were using a regular lens on a monopod.
if you have a strong arm, you can take @400mm at 1/30 shutter,(only for the lucky one's;-)a good picture...
