I'm not getting rid of my 100-400 f/4.5-5.6 GM because it's used for many applications including action as well as landscapes.
With the 1.4x TC, it reaches 560mm but there is a 1-stop of light loss. (f/8)

The new 200-600 f/5.6-6.3 at 560mm is f/6.3 (2/3 stops faster), so for those using the 100-400 GM mainly with the 1.4x attached, the new 200-600 starts to make sense.


Hi Fred,

But, for the purpose of packing and travel, particularly when space and weight are an issue by air, the 100-400mm GM has a distinct advantage.

I am going to keep my 100-400mm GM and depending upon the findings by others and if I can afford it, purchase the 200-600mm in the future.
