Your experience with the new EF 70-200/2.8 L IS USM II

[Richard Lane]

So, thanks, Rich. Maybe you could post sometimes some shots with the 300/2.8 + 7D combo. I'd be in particular interested how that works with a 1.4 extender. I have a Kenko 300plus, quite sharp, not much distortion, but may have to change to a more exensive Canon extender then.

Hey Roland,


Sorry about the delay!

Wow, so great shots, Rich! Obviously the 300/2.8 works perfectly with the 7D's AF, even with an extender.


No problem with the delay. I've been extremely busy these days.


Best, Roland

Well, thank you so much to all for your great support. I still need to think about this issue. Both the 70-200/2.8 and the 300/2.8 have their pros and cons for me...
