The 500mm Telephoto lens has an opening of 86mm!! Compared to my Ultra-wide lens with a round 77mm but with a far smaller lens opening. The 86mm is one big lens. The 300mm has a 62mm opening which you can see here, compared.

Yes, I haven't slept. I have been building PC's but my harddisks are acting up and makes my work slow down for days. In the afternoon today I have to deliver so.... was just posting these few photos and back to work.

I don't even have time to test my new lens :\

...hehe trust me, taking a picture with a 500mm by hand is very tiring and in most cases impossible to take a bit of a sharp picture without a pod.

Really, I'm training at fitness to carry this thing and shoot birds with it from the hand =) hope I don't hit the neighboring bird-lover, sweeping and panning it because those guys sometimes have an even bigger lens.
