What lens is that the fella in blue is using? I can't seem to find it in any web site.

Glad someone else is perplexed......

I can't figure what it is, guess I should have asked him.

I'm sure someone here will enlighten us..:D

I like your photos a lot. I was just wondering if you were using the monster lens he was holding (didn't know if that was you or not) to take them. Were you using the 100-400 for most of your shots?

Don't know the fella with that beast...I've put that pic on a couple of other forums I use, and not yet had anyone own up...

All those posted taken with 100-400L and 300D, ISO 100, and most AV f8 priority, although I was switching between AV and TV at 1/500th

They're all such fantastic shots I can't pick a favourite. So sharp and colourful. You should post this link whenever one of those "is the 100-400mm any good?" threads comes up in the EF lenses section.

That huge lens looks like the 500mm f/4. Hand holding it is quite impressive.

a) He was RIAT
b) If he was does he now use Canon
and c) Is that him & what's the lens.
I'll let you know.....
