Re: Anyone destroyed an EF 70-300mm L?

I tried to sand off the coating on the outside by using a third party tripod mount ring, and I succeeded in that. Some of the white coating missing now. Definitely my own mistake.

For anything else, being not overly cautious using my photographic gear, the L survived all my mistreatments pretty well. Stopped using protectionfilters quite a while ago and the coating on the front element is still perfect.

Sandor.
