One of my first shots on the Mk ii. Not a phenomenal shot by any stretch of the imagination, but I wanted to see what the DOF was at 2.8 on close up shots. I like what I saw for sure.

I really liked the way this one turned out. The focus was spot on, the bokeh was fantastic on the flowers in the foreground.

I've been inlove with this lens eversince my buddy let me borrow his copy a couple of years ago and I finally got one this morning. Can't wait to try it out later on my son's flag football.

If I don't get the shots I want with the gear I have, the only optics I need to examine is the mirror on the bathroom wall. The root cause will be there.

You'll never touch your F4 again, as good as it is.

After many hours of research I too have decided to buy a 70-200 MKII (was considering the 100-400 MKII), so roll on Dec when I finally get my hands on one.

You will be amazed by it...It is probably one of the best lenses canon has ever made...

I am having the same issue. I love my F4, but this lens is just better in every way I have tried it so far. I fear if I sell my F4 I will regret it.
