this shot has been taken with my 400D ( just sold ) and my 70-200 with a Tc 1.4, handheld shot in JPEG.
Post processing was only an adjustment in brightness, cropping and little bit more sharpness, all in DPP.

i really love this lens !

What do u think ?

Nice one mate, you can just about reach out & touch the Moon, owing to the zooming capabilities of the fantastic 70-200L IS. The 40D is a great camera too, seeing I own one too. Not that I'm biassed or any such thing; "Well perhaps just a tad"

That moon shot is wicked good!

Many thanks,

and that was handheld with a Kenko Pro TC 1.4x, shot in JPEG.

But yes the 70-200 F4 is amazing...

From my strip to Edingburgh a few months back. Sadly this lens has now been sold as I hardly used it. A tought decision though as it's a fantastic performer

Heres one from Vietnam

This is one of the best pictures I've ever seen. You told a HUGE story when you took this picture. I called my kids over to the computer to show this shot. What a story. Imagine all that this man has seen. He lived through one of the worst Asian civil wars in history. God knows what he's seen and survived.

Thank you. bw!

Oh, and as a testament to it's toughness... my wife and I were walking on a wooden boardwalk around some geysers, and I was wearing my camera backpack. She unzipped it to get the camera (with the 28-135 attached), and out fell my 70-200 f/4L. As soon as I heard the loud "thunk" behind me, I knew what it was. She confirmed it with, "Oh, damn, that was your lens." I felt sick to my stomach but downplayed it by walking along, taking shots with the other lens. I didn't want her to feel bad. But after about ten minutes, I couldn't stand it anymore, sat down and switched to the 70-200, and fired off a couple shots. Worked like a champ!

I've had this lens for a few weeks now and I gotta say it is sweet, and sharp...not quite as sharp as my 135L but the versatility certainly makes up for that. Here's a few from a climbing trip in southern Colorado last week.
