I took my grandkids to a nearby park yesterday along with my 70-200 f/4 L. I got some amazing shots...this lens is so sharp. Of course IMHO I had some great subject matter to photograph

Thanks everyone for the comments. Both of these shots are crops of the originals...which are a little more balanced. But, their Mommy likes closeups and so I crop them thet way for printing Jim -- I keep the Leica D-Lux 7 in the Glove Box just in case!

simmo1 Member 63 posts Joined Jan 2007 Location: N.E.Lincs. U.K. More info | I'm also saving for this lens. Apart from portraits i much prefer candids of the kids so you get a nice natural photo rather than them pulling a silly face at the camera !
