This man is a landscape photographer in the UK, but you might enjoy the review all the same.

Actually hes an aussie 😉

And what's the problem with being a landscape photographer and/or in the UK?  Plus did anyone tell Ansel Adams that landscape photography was not 'critical' work?

I get that the people who shoot BIFs etc would want a longer faster lens but no-one especially Canon ever said that this lens was designed for that purpose. It's not a specialist lens by any means but it does look a good (maybe excellent) lightweight telephoto and will be suitable for many at a price easily affordable and, I predict, will sell in much greater numbers than the exotics which are hugely expensive for good reason.

But thanks for the link to the review,

John
