Even tho it has its quirks the 100-400 IS is probably the best all round lense on the market for the sub pro user.
I prefer action or inflight shots opposed to static ones. Without the IS most of these shots would of been impossible as they are all hand held and at 300-400mm. I did the tripod and folding chair routine during the spring and it got quite tiresome after a few weeks. Don't you ever get the urge to shoot something else Mini ?
Seldom do i shoot wildlife anymore, too unpredictable and often too time consuming. Humans are much more predictable and easier to shoot, just ask Laz. I'm an average skilled photographer but with Canon's IS and Photoshop even i can capture some nice ones, just by pointing a clicking.
Whatever you do Mini spend the doe to get Canon L glass with IS and don't ferget the extended warranty. You'd be better off grabbing a better lense first cuz the D300 is just a 10D with crippled firmware.
Happy Hunting.
