You guys shoot some unreal images. Funny, how we'd get annoyed if someone looked at our portfolio and said what a great lens we must have for the images to have come out so nicely.

The 70-200 MKII is great by itself but I can't believe how it shines with extenders.
I agree...in addition to the great IS, AF performance and bokeh I'm shocked at how well this lens takes extenders. IMO the impact of the 1.4X on AF and IQ is negligible, but even with the 2X the AF is still lively on my 1D3 and IQ is better than I expected.
This is a camera JPEG (significantly cropped) using the 2X ('old' version 2) @400mm/F5.6 through a window in dim (dusk) light...

Phil, I am sorry to hear of the loss of your friend.
Here's a couple more snaps that I shot yesterday as my kids got their new bikes outside for the first time since Santa brought them...

Phil: We all share your grief. Our pets are very much a part of our family. The consolation is that you gave your pet a good and happy life and that's all that we can do for them.
Matt: Those snapshots rock, especially the first couple of shots, as they have the quality and look of the 200/2L! So maybe I should rephrase that .... the 70-200L II rocks!

PhilHey Phil,
this was taken near /or at your house ? Got a friend of whose house is very near one of those in the foreground !
Fantastic view from those houses !
HI Maxxevv - sorry for the delay answering your question - I don't live in that area but sometimes drive through on my way to work. It's a remarkable spot but most of these houses are on steep hills and we shy away from that in earthquake / mudslide country! But the views can be spectacular. I understand that Richard Misrach shot the photos in his "Golden Gate" book from his front porch...

I love the 70-200 II for everything from wildlife to landscapes (and sometimes you get both in the same shot):
