Took delivery of my 7D and 15-85mm IS USM from Kerso today :D

36 hours between me ordering it and it being delivered! Now that's what I call service :clap:

Had a little play with it and can't believe the difference between it and my 400D and siggy 18-200mm, it's like night and day.

Not had a chance to get out with it yet as it's been raining (which incidentally stopped me getting out on my new roller boots too :lol: ) but I'll whack some pictures up when I do :)

Congrats on the new purchase Russ.

If you dont mind a bit of advice from a 7D old timer, take a look at these

Look at them once, then look at them again :thumbs:

Cheers for that!!!

Been studying a couple of other links about setting it up...... and studying it again..... and again (you get the idea :lol: )

Feels like I'm starting over again!
 
Be prepared to feel like you are taking a backward step, especially when trying to get to grips with all the AF modes.

If you are anything like me, it will last a few weeks and then suddenly it will all come together. It's well worth the perseverence tho :thumbs:
 
The weather's been very unkind and I haven't been able to get out yet but I took these hanging out of my lounge window :lol:

Resizing/compressing them hasn't done them a lot of favours but you get the idea ;)
 
nice shots so far.... but did you get on the ROLLER BOOTS????

There is a small video clip that my GF shot from my lounge of me skating round the car park...... Lucky for me she doesn't know how to share it on tinterweb :lol:

Only managed to get out on them for about 10 mins, no major issues, was able to get up to a reasonable pace, jump up/down curbs with no problems.

One thing I realised after 10 mins though, it's either going to make me uber fit or give me a heart attach very quickly :lol:
