May 04, 2008 12:56 | #15 Thanks everyone for your nice comments Sindri Skulason wrote in post #5458123  Congrats on the new lens. It is definitely a keeper. Excellent shots.  Absolutely, love it. T.D. wrote in post #5458391 Outstanding series! Looks like you've got the hang of the new lens! Congrats. To be honest it's so easy, having fast AF and being so sharp. Ooops mick johnson wrote in post #5458684 Lovely shot's, and I like No-2 the best. I am thinking of getting this lens myself. Were these wide open?? All wide open, haven't used it on anything else yet. I would recommend it, I spent ages deliberating over this and 100-400 and have been extremely happy so far. Canon 1D III, 5D & 40D, Canon 17-40 L,
