Oh, don't worry, it grows on you. You'll find the heft quite nice when shooting. :)

Very nice lens. That thing is so large at the front element and so narrow at the neck. :)

Great pictures by the way.

Congrats! Now you can pull in alien signals from Andromeda. Okay, maybe not. But a candle from 500' at least.  :p

Congrats!

But it's amazing how the lens looks old (just the same as the Mark I [almost]) and the hood is still the same; for EF 50 f/1L, EF 50 f/1.2L, EF 85 f/1.2L, EF 85 f/1.2L.

Thought the clip-on hood was a little oldish now (I know the 50 1.8 has it and one other but still... :))
