Looking forward to receiving my new 800mm lens in the AM from Normans Camera with a full report to follow . Hope to have some tests run with a few samples from this lens by friday afternoon. Looks to be quite a incredible piece of L Glass..



Cheers, Jerry

"This is the longest telephoto lens among Canon's lineup, and a terrific choice for any long-distance application-outdoor sports, wildlife, news photojournalism, and so on."

I'm sure your test shots will be an excellent dispay of the capabilities! Then again..................

Just having the ability to "OWN" and perform pixel peeping shots is a exellent display of a "Capability".. :)

Has just arrived in Ohio and will be giving it a quick overall and run it through a few pixel peeping tasks. From what i seen so far, it is a stellar lens.




cheers, jerry

Yet another doorstop for Jerry. It should make eBay by next month with the 600 which he still had no idea how to use :D

Now owning this special new canon 800mm lens for almost a week, I can say the optics are simply incredible in every way. Samples are now available on my website of this awesome lens in action. For those on the fence about this lens.. Jump onboard and dont wait any longer as you will never regret it..


Cheers, from NW Ohio

Is this feller a Canon shill or what? So what.. he's taken photos of the lens? Being used? wow. By whom we wonder, and what piece of exotica was used to photograph this activity... really.. enquiring minds with far too much time to waste need this information. : :oops: :shock:

All I see is a couple of blurry cybershot photos of the lens sitting on the floor. Is this the "action" you are referring to ? :?
I am genuinely curious to see a photo taken with this lens. Do you actually have one ?
