My 70-200 f/2.8 came today :lol: :lol:

Slightly bigger then i expected, but i can do my curls so all is well.

I didnt realize it in the excitement of the new lens but i was in AI servo (which as you know isnt fully functional) and so i thought i got dealt a bad lens...after i mounted another lens and had the same issue it occured to me what the problem was.

I cant belive how quiet and fast it focuses...it's unreal.

Nor can i wait for wed's football camp. A chance to see where my skills truely are.

Anyways for anyone who may doubt the lens (i doubt there are any doubters out there doubting...)

Nope, just slightly outta my price range. And really not needed for my style of photography.

Is it just me, or the cat's face isn't entirely sharp ?
Congradulation, TQ - it's one of the finest lenses out there.

Photo looks great but it might be more impressive if there were some details.
