This is the inside of turn 2. This is one of the photograhers from the Indianapolis Star. Turn 2 is jammed against the warm up lane and the back of the F1 track. It is the closest you get to the track in general (on the indside anyway). There is no shooting break in the fence.
Turn 3 only has a short fence so plenty of open space to shoot (or chimp. In all fairness, the track was under a yellow so there wasn't anything else to do).
No images to add sadly, haven't been anywhere with anyone else around lately....but what an amazing thread. I definitely have some big-L envy now, my camera feels so small.
I'm trying to find pics of people using the 500 f4 IS and 400 f4 DO IS - to better help guage the sizes.
These are the two lenses I'm considering adding to my collection over the next year or so - one for portability, the other for sheer reach - but I wonder about my ability to carry/use them. Then again, the 300f4 used to seem big to me, now it's nothing.
ya the hoods are huge on these long teles, but it makes me much more comfortabel to put in upside down on the hood, heck even has the rubber on the end for it.

the 300 f2.8L IS is about the same size as the 400 f4L DO IS. the 400 f4 DO is lighter than the 300 f2.8L IS
You won't think so if you get a 400/2.8 IS
Here is a shot of me w/ a 500/4 IS for the poster that inquired........it comes from this thread, but I forget who originally posted it.
