Loving # 5! It's wonderful!

I have one doubt that maybe will sound silly, but I'm new in this. Do you use a tripod or this photos can be taken with an IS lens?

Thanks for your help.

Regards!

I like them, gives me a few ideas for my trip. I always struggle for different angles in Vegas, its easy to fall into the tourist trap shots.

ps; number 3 for me, nice unusual angle and lighting

If you keep carrying that lens everyday...one day you can compete in WWE.
nice images though...

You mean one arm will be bigger than the other ? :lol:

Nice pics, definitely different looks on Vegas.

Did you still get those mini-flyers handed to you while carrying that lens walking around the strip? :)

Great shots! I especially like the second one. So were you packing the 400mm f/2.8? Last time I was in NYC, the guys at B&H let me play with that lens. It was like lifting a car battery! Once I get done with the physical therapy required after my attempt to use this lens and find a way to scrounge up $7K, I'm gonna get one.

This is the 100-400L, not the F/2.8 version. That would be a feat to carry around :eek:

Yeah just balance yourself out by carrying with the hand you don't use to, umm,

Nice photos. Good idea and well carried out.
