New Lens Arrived! 70-200 F4 L

[allanc]

UPS guy just dropped it off. I missed him yesterday because he came by in the short time that I was gone. :mad: Darn that Signature Required box.

I went outside and snapped a few pictures and WOW! It is so fast to focus, so quiet, and so sharp.

I'm heading out after while to snap some more pictures.

:lol:

OK, here is what I did to test out my new lens.

This is Stella (my new puppy, 13 weeks) and Maya (my 11 year old sweetie).

And finally, while I was shooting the dogs, I saw a dragonfly land in the grass.

what's really cool here, is not only are these great shots, but you gave us the results we all expect to see.........not the usual ruler shots..........{^<)

Shooting rulers is informative but not representative of the kinds of shots I normally take! ;)

I can think of one ruler I'd like to shoot!;-)

(Naw, not really, that's too unkind)

I have finally figured out what the L stands for--it stands for love. And I do LOVE my new lens.
