Re: Got a 135L last week...LOVING THIS LENS

I am glad you are enjoying this lens.  I bought one a year ago.  I love shallow depth of field photography.  I just wish this lens had IS.  The IS would compensate for my shaky hands.  But I guess the lens has an old design and at the time they did not offer IS.  Optically speaking, I have no complaints.  I love taking action shots.  Although if your subject is moving towards you, you will be limited by the fixed focal length.  That is why sometimes I wish I had the 70-200 F2.8 IS.  But that lens is so heavy, expensive, and it is one stop slower.  Nevertheless, if you learn how to use the 135L, you can take photos that are out of this world.

Thank you for sharing your pictures.
