One of the best series I have seen here within the last month. For a zoom lens unbelievable sharpness, clearness, super bokeh and 3D effect. Perfect combo with 5D (noone need more cam !!)
This lens is worth every Penny. Congrats. Thanks for sharing.

Rolf, Stan and poilu, many thanks for your comments. I just love this lens, it does everything I want it to do, other than be a bit shorter at the short end

Great series Graham! All are nice, but the first three ones are the winners for me really funny 
I was sure that you were going to love the 100-300. It's the king of daylight. Neatly better than the fixed focal lenghts of Contax (180, 200, 300 mm).
I'm kind of proud of having introduced our group into this lens
The only problem I have with the 100-300 is that since I own it I barely use any other long lenses anymore

That good? This is the first time, I really pay attention to this lens. Looks like another one to look for in the future.

Orio, it was definitely your thread which opened my eyes to this lens  It's just a shame that there are so few about!
