See the Canon EF 100 400 L IS pump action
Recently I have built a FAQ for the Canon EF 100 400 L IS and in one of the answers I brought up the subject that the push/pull zoom of the Canon EF 100 400 L IS sucks the dust right into the sensor.
I got some emails from owners confirming that they have had no dust problem with that lens whatsoever which, by the way, was a big relief for me since I am expecting mine to arrive any day now.
Recently a fellow photographer did some scientific tests with his Canon EF 100 400 L and here are the results
Olli sealed with double rubber a plastic bag on his lens to check the amount of air going in and out at every pump
notice the volume difference of the bag.
