Request for lens comparison pictures please?

[GlynH]

Bit of a strange one this...could some kind soul post a picture of the Canon 300mm f/2.8 & Canon 100-400 f/4.5-5.6 lenses side-by-side please?

Not to be confused for a request for photographs taken with the lenses but actual pictures of the lenses themselves to give a sense of scale & size difference between the two as a comparison...

Thanks & kind regards,

Here there are both comparisons, but not in the same pic:

300mm f/2.8 L IS II 5.19 lbs (2350g) 5.0 x 9.8" (128 x 248mm) Drop-in filters, £5300-ish, so about 4x the 100-400 cost
300mm f/2.8 L IS 5.63 lbs (2550g) 5.0 x 9.9" (128 x 252mm) Drop-in filters, discontinued, was £3500-3800
