It has not been heavily used (shutter count is 7100+/-).</P><P>A bit of a howitzer of a lens, being a push-pull, all metal unit, but with a very versatile range and having beautiful colour tones. I have a huge museum of digital gear, going back to 2000, and I still enjoy shooting with all of it.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I went shooting in a local reserve where some of our native birds, known as Pukeko were out and about doing their spring thing!</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Looking for its mate: 300mm, f/5.6, 1/320 sec, ISO-320.</P><P><IMG src="https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/30915i11DEB34C9CCEE128/image-size/original?v=v2&amp;px=-1" border="0" alt="5D3_7151 copy 2.jpg" title="5D3_7151 copy 2.jpg" /></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>A Blasted Tree, still standing proud by the pathway: 28mm, f/9, 1/80sec, ISO-100</P><P><IMG src="https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/30917i5172B4CA2CB1444F/image-size/original?v=v2&amp;px=-1" border="0" alt="5D3_7163 copy 2.jpg" title="5D3_7163 copy 2.jpg" /></P> Sat, 27 Nov 2021 03:45:21 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Share-Your-Photos/Shooting-with-Classic-Gear/m-p/355264#M2825 Tronhard 2021-11-27T03:45:21Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Share-Your-Photos/Shooting-with-Classic-Gear/m-p/355854#M2830 Nice Thu, 18 Nov 2021 06:10:40 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Share-Your-Photos/Shooting-with-Classic-Gear/m-p/355854#M2830 MARK-OF-FUN 2021-11-18T06:10:40Z
