Dave,

As already expressed, very beautiful pictures. Just curious, which lenses did you take and which did you use? Thanks.

Ron

I know your question was probably directed at Dave, but I'll chime in: I took my (all Canon) 10-22 zoom, 17-40 zoom, 50 f/1.4, 28-135 zoom, 100-400 zoom.

I used, in this order of preference, my 28-135, 10-22, and 100-400. The 28-135 was by far the lens I used most, and the 17-40 and 50 didn't see any action at all.

Noel,

I may be getting off our topic/thread here but, as I stated previously in another thread, I recently sold my Canon 28-135 IS lens because I lost the IS feature, i.e. when viewing a shot with the IS on, the image would "chatter" and the result would be an out of focus shot. I really miss that lens but I am reluctant to get another because of this experience. Of all the EF lenses that I have owned (ten, four were/are IS), that is the only one that I had a problem with. The lens was always "babbied". Anyway, I am going to put that on my Christmas gift list and give it another try. Thanks for your input.

Ron

I'm sorry to hear of your bad experience.

For what it's worth, mine's on my camera all the time, except if I want to go wide or tele. I've put no doubt 50,000+ shots through it on 4 different bodies and today it's as solid as it was in 2000 when I got it.

The images may not be *quite* as crisp and clean as with a prime, but they are very processable, as you no doubt already know, Ron.
