Nice shot!

 Manual exposure?  -EV at work? 

I love the darker exposures like this but only get them in manual...

Thanks!  No, this was shot in Av mode at f/4.0 with no EV.

What did you meter on and what was the WB set at?

I have my meter set to evaluative metering and my WB set on auto.  I shoot RAW so I just tweaked the WB in Lightroom.

That's a great shot Schultzie.

I rented this lens for a trip to the Zoo recently. This was my favorite shot:

After dreaming about this lens for a long time, I finally got it 5 days ago. This was my first shot...a pigeon near my yard.

7D, f/5.0, 1/250, ISO 100 @ 200mm. Cropped and some PP in DPP.

Not sure what you tweaked, myself I often increase blacks... just seems to increase the "purity" of the image (like in yours) and remove Haze....

I just love this lens. I don't shoot a great deal with it but when I do, I realise how stellar it is in both functionality/handling and results. I need to find more excuses to use it...

I too love this lens and find that it sits in my bag and then when I get it out I wonder why I haven't used it more but then I have to say that about all of the lenses in my bag or at least all of the canon lenses. I guess that really I just need to shoot a lot more

Hey guys I need help with this lens. No matter how much I afma I can not get this lens to be sharp on my 5d markii. It's really annoying when you have such an amazing lens and it won't focus accurately. Now I can't place all the blame on it because every lens on my camera is at about +14. So obviously my camera is off also. Can I send the 5d markii out to canon? Or it and lenses?  I am worried I am just going to get it back and try are going to say they are all within our specifications.
