Fathers day come early!!
I just got a new lens for my Canon 400D camera.
It's a EF 100-400 5.6 IS USM lens

Look forward to taking some photos with it at the GP.


Anyone else into this type of thing?

Here are a couple of pics I have taken trying it out.

There is no substitute for the quality of the piece of glass on the front.

I've had my Canon EOS 300D for 5 years now and taken '000s of photos, as a hobby and professionally. It's only 6.3mp, but with good lenses will blow up to A3 perfectly.

She's just about worn out now and I'm looking at replacing with the 400D (they're now cheaper than I originally paid for mine.

I've often looked at getting that particular lens.

Lens envy is cruel disease!

Good stuff...it can get expensive but very satisfying.
