Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L USM

Folks, introducing the Canon EF70-200mm f/4L USM.

Finally got my hands on this piece of wonder glass during the CNY break and it has not been disappointing. Nope, not one bit. These pix will attest to its legendary sharpness:








All were unsharpened, with only adjustments in size, brightness and contrast. But if it's sharpened and touched up pix you want, here's some spotting ones from the airside of Penang International and the perimeter fence of Kuching International:











Final verdict: worth every cent I spent on it, though it may be the smallest sibling in the 70-200mm class at f/4 and has no IS. But it's L-quality nontheless and I also think it's gonna be hard to control the 'poison' now.

Next items on the wishlist:
i) A walkaround lens. Think 18-200mm IS.
ii) A new body. EOS5D anyone?
