Jim ... I bet a bunny and you raise me a squirrel? I see how its gonna be ... hehe:)
So the 100-400 you have, is it the push pull zoom L lens?
Re: Canon -v- Nikon -v- Others: TEAM CHALLENGE - Month ending 30th June 2009
I should have raised ya 2 squirrels,but I'm a conservative gambler:D
Yes it's a push pull zoom.I really like that feature.It actually is easier for me than the twist zooms.I find myself hunting at times for the focus ring on my 70-200 if I'm a bit rushed for a shot.Nice bunny shot BTW.

Jim, have you ever tried to make portraits with this lens at 400 ?
Which cam are you using ? Crop factor 1.6 ?
I am a f/2,8 lover but I see that this lens is quite good.
Any how I had already seen some pictures with it and the quality is really nice.
What I like most is the shallow DOF and the bokeh.
:)

Hi Antonio,
I'm really new to photography and I haven't tried portrature yet,so I can't give an opinion.I'm shooting a 50D 1.6X crop.It's a wonderful lens,but the 5.6 max aperture at the long end needs good light.For a long lens it's easy to handhold.I have a 300 f/4 and they are very close in weight.
Regards,
Jim

Oh the 300 f4L IS nice lens ... I've read some really good reviews on it - its even sharper than the 400 5.6. Its going to be my next lens purchase I think.

Great first picture. A fledgling blackbird? A guess!

A a fledgling Jackdaw (Corvus monedula). Here is another of the same bird which is easier to identify...

Top stuff mate. Yeah that is easier to identify. I was looking at the "gape" on the other and made a quick guess!
