Super pictures, Chris and Mick! :)

I think Jeff does it best, to post it here and also have a link to his Flickr to see it there too, the best of both worlds. ;)

Cheers, John

i think there is a good selection of photos from this lens being shown now to show its capability to those that's interested

Chris, both are super gorgeous shots! :) ..I do love seeing your "super sized" orginal size view of your pictures on Flickr. Yes, there's now many great examples of the quality of images this lens is capable of. I still think it will be great to post pictures from experiments either from camera settings or from usb dock settings. Cheers, John

Good shot Jeff, all the more with it being shot through double-glazing. I am guessing that this was with the 1D mkiii

Paul, from the exif info, the below camera was used..
Camera: Canon EOS-1D Mark III

Jeff, another fantastic capture! ..but the crow had spotted you ;)

Cheers, John

couple from today ,i am coming to the conclusion that the lens tends to have the edge coupled to the 70d ,which i suppose is logical really might have to re-think cameras later in the year .
