I have just bought a Canon 100-400 f4.5-5.6L and I am so excited. I am also very worried that I will wake up tmorrow morning and come to the conclusion that I am totally mad and irresponsible.... I have never spent so much money on a luxury, let alone one that is just for me......

Congrats on your purchase... enjoy it and remember you only live once.

nice! Tell me how you like it, because that may be my next buy (but not for a year or so).

That's what I want for sure. It's really all that's missing from my bag, is more extreme reach. Lucky you!

I have been out to play in the local woods, and I know I am going to love this lens. Here are two of the photos I took - the wren may be a bit blurry, but not suprising at 1/30th hand-held! Nonetheless, I am really pleased to have got a semi-usable photo, as it was early dusk, and these birds are tiny, and move very fast, even when they are on the ground feeding.

I am going on holiday tomorrow, for four days to Robin Hood's Bay, a little fishing village on the Yorkshire coast, and so hopefully I will get to grips with the lens then. I shall report back on my return!
