27R Take offs: First outing with my new lens.

Post by wiggy » Tue Feb 13, 2018 6:34 pm

Treated myself to the Canon EF 100-400 IS II for Christmas. Was dying to try it out but the weather has been pants most weekends since. Had a day off yesterday and the weather gods were kind so took a trip to the village of Horton to try some 27R take off shots from LHR.

Looks a handy piece of kit from this first outing.

Cheers Denis.

Great pictures from what appears to be a cracking location.

Look's as though you're going to get good value from the 100-400 2.
