I just received mine today and had a fun time with it...totally blew 90% of my shots due to chronic over exposure, a problem I have in general, but given the bright day and this lens it was more significant.

The gorilla has a halo and a strange coloration to the grass around him. Was this shot post processed significantly? Perhaps over-lightened? wow, you caught that one...I missed it, but see it now too. I am thinking maybe it was a DOF issue? The gorilla is so thick that not all of it was in the DOF range? I am just a rook guessing at that one. Real men shoot Pentax because we're born with our own Canon's!!

I am hoping today I can grab a UV Haze filter because we do have a bit of haze here all the time due to winds ALL THE TIME. I am better at using the alternate focus points on the 40d. But, SPEED is my friend and I MUST keep chanting that...speed is my friend, speed is my friend...but learn to control my speed because often speed kills...

Kinda weird cool natural effect but then again, I'm new. Real men shoot Pentax because we're born with our own Canon's!!

I do struggle with 1/3's but I'm trying. I thought the flemingos were a little 1/3's? Here is an unprocessed version of the gorilla. I didn't pic this shot because of quality but rather from it being unique... If you have the MP for it I would go right after those teeth/head. A little DOF and it might look very menacing.
