I, too, couldn't justify the cost of the 600mm canon so i opted for the 300mm 2.8 with a 1.4x converter and a 2.0x converter giving me 300mm, 480mm and 600mm respectively and this used with your 7D will give you more when you take into account the 1.6x crop sensor.

I can assure you that its not me getting excited, if capital letters and a swearword give you visions of someone frothing at the mouth i suggest you get out more ! On a more serious note and i am only joking by the way, i had a very similar case with similar circumstances and i named this user...

I'm not getting excited about it, all it is is that i use ebay quite a lot to buy and sell equipment and it would be an advantage to know who these scammers are. I can't believe the amount of posts this has generated from people who obviously are getting excited about it when the easy solution...

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT SHOULKD DO.......GIVE THE EBAY USERS NAME SO THAT WE CAN AVOID THIS ******** LIKE THE PLAGUE....PLEASE PLEASE GIVE HIS EBAY USER I.D.

Thanks, i guess renting would be one solution but as you mention the 400 f5/6, i had thought about that and perhaps using 1.4x or even a 2.0x converter but would i get as good as or at least a comparable IQ this way and as you say that would be easier on the pocket. What i really don't want to...

I'm after some advice regarding the 500mm and/or 600mm canon lenses. I'm currently using a siggy 120-400 os etc. which is ok for where i'm at at the moment. I mainly shoot birds from a hide in good light but i'm finding that i could really do with the extra length. Now would it be worth me...

I just bought a 120-400 siggy from them and to be honest i panicked because i ordered and payed before i found some ill reports of them, but and a big but is, i contacted them asking for them to commit themselves as to when i would take delivery and although it was a little longer than expected...
