I don't use my Canon 70-200 very often but when I do, I always wonder why not. It is amazingly sharp wide open at f2.8 and the shallow DOF is very thin.

A great lens indeed Ken, must admit mine does not get the used that much as i find it a tad on the heavy side. This must be seen large to appreciate the DOF.

Thanks Azz and Shirley.
Thanks Brian, I think the weight is a contributing factor plus it is large and shouts attention when out and about with it.
Thanks Suzie, It was a very rare moment of sunshine in the back garden that just makes you want to take pictures.
Thanks Richard, that's one of the main things I like about it too.
