100 to 400 in seconds flat.... (at f4.5)

Well, 4.5 to 5.6!

The lens truly is a beasty, heavy and solid, but a great piece of glass!!... Nath and I have hired the thing for the weekend and are headed to the London Zoo tomorrow morning to see if we can shoot some animals (the nice way!)

We ventured out to the Silverstone raceway on thursday night with Thomas for POWER NIGHTS - it was a good evening of racing (formula fords etc) and my first go with the 100-400 too. Then, a helicopter (RAF) flew over the other side of the raceway and this is what 400mm at f7.1 made of it...


All in all a great lens, though, I find myself being a bit of a paparazzi at the minute... hmmm :) oh well!
