Yes
Have been looking at a 1ds Mark II for a little while and then a good friend of mine offered me this little beauty for a belting price...

Tested it this afternoon in the garden, not great subjects :)
But blown away by the sharpness of the lens, absolutely incredable...

Cheers CT for the little shoulder devil :)

Only shot at F4 !, not even 2.8 yet. ISO 100

Think I am going to love this ....

Cheers,
Neil
 
Razor sharp eyes looks like a great lens.:)
 
Wow - Neil I had a sneaking feeling you were going to give in to this one!! Looks like you're glad you did too - good on ya! :D
 
Very nice indeed!




(as the lens envy spreads across the forum) ;)
 
I want one of those one day.
Got other stuff to get first though like a 70-200 :)

I thought I had too, been eyeing up a 1ds Mark II for weeks, but in the end, the price for this second hand was just too good to turn down. The body is now on the backburner, well at least for a few months ;)

I'll pop some more shots up as I get to play about over the next few weeks.
 
Lovely mate, have to say though that cat looks seriously narked :) Good you were a distance from him/her LOL
 
OK- I promise not to say I told you so! (y)
 
Gorgeous piece of glass you have there. You'd better put it to good use
 
This is the reason pro sports are a sea of Canon white lenses. They are very very good.

The super teles are just amazing, even my old 300mm f/4L amazes me but thats got nothing on your new toy. I'm so very jealous!!

Congratulations!
