The Bigma arrived not even an hour ago. It's spring - but snowing here. I'm hoping it'll stop, but meanwhile I ran out barefoot onto my frozen deck and took a quick shot at a chickadee at 500mm. I was after the squirrel, but he ran off as soon as the door opened. So, you get a chickadee.

I hope the moose dont run off like the squirrel. I think the poor squirrel saw that huge lens coming out the door and thought it was a canon. lol He wont come back.

The moose will probably think your new lens is another moose and want to mate with it.

We want a self-portrait of you holding the Canon with the Bigma mounted on it...

Heh, I was just thinking the same thing. Though when I visualize it, ShutterPug is dressed in camo with full face paint. :D

This is the first lens that I have had that I feel I dont really mount the lens to the camera, but I mount the camera to the lens.
