Saving the pennies to buy one of these, and should be buying it soon. Anyone else got one and any comments good or bad? (Canon Fit)
"Nice pics mate" comments only! No criticism please.

Had one for 9 months, before realising my mistake and getting the Canon 100-400. In good light when you get stop it down to F8 it was sharp, and focused well - however in usual British air show weather it was next to useless sadly, with photos lacking contrast, containing blotchy noise, and focus going all over the shop.

The Canon 100-400 however, I cannot fault even in crappy weather. My advice; save your pennies and get the Canon.
