Two sunny Saturdays on the trot at Castle Combe:cool: a couple of pics from the MLR sprint yesterday. Another outing with a hired 100-400L, think I'm going to trade in my 70-300L. The longer lens is growing on me:eek:

Good crisp images ...

The 100-400 gets sniffed at, but is a great work horse of a lens. Check it out though before you part with your money. I had to take the first one I owned back, as it was soft. A common problem I was later told.

Cheers Dave

Good set of shots :) I think I saw you while I was working on the Infield

It is a Beast of a lens but I would have thought a bit restrictive at some locations


7D and 1D mk3 24-105L.........70-200F2.8 L .............100-400 L lens and too much other crap

Thanks, have heard a few say the 100-400 can be a little unreliable, but I've hired it a few times now and all good so far. Will treat myself later this year I think.

Interested in trying out the Tamron 150-600? I was thinking about picking up the 100-400L for motorsports work this summer, but since the Tamron came out I have been interested in trying it out.

On my Knockhill site 80% of the shots are with the 100-400L and I would recommend it to anyone. The remainder when a bit of extra reach is needed are from the Sigma 150-500


Most Canons currently - 1D(Mks 2&3&4), 7D gripped 50D gripped x2, 40Dgripped x2, 30Dgripped, 20D gripped, 350 gripped, 300. with L lenses
