I think I like 100-400 II :)


Lovely series Dylan.
I like that lens too!
Got the lens, but have not had time to check it out properly yet. Looks very promising though :)


I am going to let it work tomorrow. Doing some shooting on foxes (first time on foxes)
I am not sure I will find some foxes and how close I can get to them. But I trust this 100-400II

So many amazing shots of birds in flight from everyone here. Very inspirational and makes me aspire to get better. I don't have many shots of birds in flight, but all the going and attempting is the fun part for me anyway. This is a Black-Necked Stilt I believe. I was lucky to get this shot the first time I took out my Canon 400 f5.6. Love that lens. I bought it through the Canon refurb shop online. It is such a great lens to go out walking and taking shots of birds.

I like the reflection and how you cropped/framed the shot.

Very nice. Sharp. :)

Thanks! I am constantly surprised by the quality of the 70-200 f4L. These shots were shot wide open. In fact, the 70-200 f4L was one of my first lenses and I never realized that most lenses are not sharp wide open. With the price (especially for the non-IS model), the 70-200 f4L is definitely an "L" glass gateway drug!
