First Shots With 300 F/2.8L IS

i will have one 2

Something is fishy to these forums. What's the catch? So far I see a good BST forum, amazingly cool mods, cool people, etc.

Oh wait, I think the catch is ..

I'm never going to stop spending money and upgrading as long as I'm here.

Jag....you need to understand......I reckon Calicocat and Dante King are probably Canon shills. And there are others on this forum, I suspect.

Noooo Jag...don't listen to him...he secretly shoots Nikon!

In my younger days I used to shoot stuff secretly......never Nikon though.

LOL.

BTW, am I wrong, or does Canon seem more popular? On FM a lot more gear being sold seems to be Canon stuff.

Oh well, I didn't like the D50 as much as the rebel, my teacher's d50 just didn't seem as smooth as my rebel, and he even said that himself after shooting my rebel.

BTW, my damn arm is aching me now. Must be from the blood test.

Lensview, were you ever caught shooting some "secret" stuff, .

No, I was not. Not because I was too smart for that......it's just that I did not use often/much at all.

Ditto. I am so poor. Although i do drive a mercedes, i can never scrap enough money for a new lens.
Dont worry though, no matter how poor, broke, or in debt i am, i ALWAYS find an excuse to tell my parents i need new photo gear, and buy it anyway... heheheheh

Dude,

I drive a total beater of a truck. BUT I have a decent kit, I guess it all in the priorties.

I can only think of the beauties a photographer could pick up with one of em 1200mm lenses or something. Just zoom right in from an apartment building onto the beach or something, LOL.

Anyway, I am glad to say I am one of the few here who seems to actually have money. Just constraining myself and buying stuff that seems logical.

No one's supposed to admit they have money! Then they can't whine about how broke they are because of the lens they just bought....or are thinking of buying...I wish Dante or Calico would post more pictures with that 300!

LoL .

I have many lenses to come and buy, and it will take a couple lenses like the one in this thread till I can say I'm really broke, LOL.

So would other denizens of this forum.
However, those two hombres are free, white and 21......if they wanna just collect lenses, that's OK too, right ? It's their money, right ? We have no business to expect them to shoot pictures with that or any other lens, right ?

I've only continued posting in this thread because I was hoping calico would be forced to bring it back on topic, thereby posting more pics.

LOL.

Hi all, back from the game. I love my 300 even more. It was the typical high school stadium with so so lighting, but the 300 handled it really well. I have to convert all ther files to Raw, then crop them so it will be awhile before I post any shots. In the meantime, here are is one from yesterdays game taken with the 300, love the bokeh
