I think the old 800 stacks up pretty good against the new II series big whites, others may feel different

You're rocking that 7DII !! The 800 is a lens I would have if my back could handle it!

Great images. They look a little hot (bright) on my ipad, but sure are sharp!

These look great, the 800 is working well. I always sort of consider the 800 as part of the new mark II super telephotos as it has the 4-stop IS and is every bit as sharp. I guess it still has the old paint job and maybe Canon could make it lighter if they remade it today but otherwise it fits in more with the mark IIs vs the mark Is.

That 800 is a beast and you know how to handle it, my friend. Tack sharp and contrasty. Very nice shots.

Thanks,
We have two of the 7D IIs and as I mentioned before I've never tried any micro adjustments. Like everything else I try I would most likely mess everything up.

Rod, had the 600I and now II. Seldom use IS so it comes down only to weight. All big whites rock.

You are right on the money Rod, the 800 is a great piece of glass. Mine was one of the first ones in the states and I love it. Most of my subjects have wings, but no feathers. Here's an example of the 800 bringing flight level 380 within reach..........

It ain't no slouch, that's for sure, and neither are you for lugging it around. Seems to be a nice combination with that 7D2.

Nice looking collection Rod. I'd agree with Charles about the hot comment. The two woodies are my faves.
