Another great shot Mark, well done.
I've hardly used my 500mm II since buying it due to problems with my 7D2, it's back with Canon Europe for repairs for the second time nowvmad. I really need to invest in a second camera.

Thanks and sorry to hear that. I've read of a few dis-satisfied 7DII customers recently. I doubt it'll be remembered as one of Canon's best.

I've not longed owned the 500mm MK II, surprisingly my first Canon 500mm though I've owned 2 Nikon 500mm F4 VR's in my attempt to find what works for me. I'm loving the 500mm MK II, I'm learning it's limits and where it excels. Really I should be getting out more with it but maybe a trip would be a good thing.

Here's a couple of my favourite images taken with it. Wildlife photography is my passion and I've been doing it for a while so naturally the 500mm MK II is one of the best lenses for me.

Well, I thought I had ordered one of these on the Canon refurb store, they sent me order confirmation, but now they are saying the one I was ordering was already bought,. and no inventory.

So maybe I'm not going to be part of the club after all.
