Great wildlife shot!

Thanks WesternGuy. I am actually looking at the 300mm f/2.8 because I also shoot sports, so this or the 400mm f/2.8 would be a dual purpose lens for me.

Hmm, sure you don't want a 500 F4? I know someone that is considering switching back to Nikon and might be selling one... Just saying

DOOOOOO IT!
Seriously if you are in the market and can swing it, you won't regret a 500mm F4.

What? Is he getting the D5 or the D500?

Unfortunately, I'm in the "want market". I want but I can't afford at the moment. But I'm considering some things.

He's thinking D500, but it depends on what the service manager says at Canon Monday morning if they can provide him with a properly working 7dm2....

When I usually look at photos I don't spend more than 10 seconds viewing them. I think I spent about a minute appreciating this photo. Great shot Ron!

What's wrong with the 1d???

The 1D4 is fine, but I really want the 7dm2 to work as it should and Canon CPS has not been making me happy at all. I'm basically requesting a replacement camera that can actually focus properly in servo. I requested via email and with the letter that I sent in with the camera that a service manager call me. Even though my camera arrived Thursday morning at 10:15, they couldn't bother to check it into their system even with my CPS gold label attached before the weekend. After my last debacle when I sent the 7dm2 and the 500 in, I'm not hopeful that I will get good service from Canon...

Oh I see. I hate to hear that. I know that it was a little slow when I sent in my 70-200mm f/4 but I don't have the CPS. Hope they get it taken care of.
