What it is
{"overview":"The Canon RF 100-400mm f\/5.6-8 IS USM is a telephoto zoom lens designed for Canon's RF mirrorless mount, aimed at wildlife, sports and aviation shooters who need long reach in a compact, lightweight package. As of today in 2026 that figure suggests the lens sells for noticeably less at saleroom level than current retail, but with only one verified result the wider value picture remains uncertain and buyers should treat it as indicative rather than definitive. Hammer prices exclude buyer's and seller's commission, so the true cost to a winning bidder is higher than the headline figure.","buying_guide":"On a relatively modern RF lens like this, inspection should focus on the front and rear elements for coating scratches, cleaning marks and any early signs of fungus or haze, particularly if the lens has been stored in damp conditions.

Questions
What should I check before buying one second-hand?
Inspect the glass for fungus, haze and coating scratches, confirm smooth zoom and focus action, and test that IS and USM autofocus operate quietly and accurately on an RF-mount body.
Does the RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM fit older Canon DSLRs?
No — it uses the RF mount introduced for Canon's mirrorless EOS R series and is not natively compatible with EF-mount DSLRs.
