Also a gem, that they should not have discontinued (look at how popular the Canon EF 400mm f5.6 L USM is, for instance).

In the same Color Foto issue, they tested it too. Together with the Canon 400mm f2.8 L IS USM it came out on top in the 400mm group.

Other 400mm's tested: Leica R 400mm f2.8, Nikon AF-S 400mm f2.8 ED, Pentax 400mm f5.6 ED.

Well, the 400/5.6L is not exactly popular. The 100-400L IS is.

I reckon the popularity (and also performance) of the zooms (70-200G, 70-400G) is also the reason why Sony

didn't bother with the 200mm G and 400mm G anymore. The primes remain superior optically though.
