  We present results from two high-contrast imaging surveys that exploit a
novel technique, L-band angular differential imaging. Our first survey targeted
21 young stars in the Beta Pic and Tuc-Hor moving groups with VLT/NACO reaching
typical sensitivities of <1 MJup at r > 20 AU. The statistical analysis of the
null result demonstrates that the giant planet population is truncated at 30 AU
or less (90% confidence level). Our second, on-going MMT/Clio survey utilizes
the unique sensitivity achieved in the L-band for old planets to probe all
M-dwarf stars within 6 pc. The proximity of these targets enables direct
imaging of planets in orbits like Jupiter for the first time - a key step for
directly imaging giant planets.
