Canon's flagship!! (I don't know if you use the same expression, but it is the best lens Canon has ever made).
I had it once but sold it as I had too little use for it. But it is a truly magnificent lens for still life for sure.
Congratulations, Husain.
This is very well captured. I hope to see more from you captured with this lens.
P.S. It is grand for outdoor photography as well AND very close portraits. #1420735

Congratulations on your new lens, Husain! Kiki sure has good comments about it!
Wonderful clarity, detail, pov & still life here, my friend!
I'm sure you will work miracles with your new lens. Good luck with it! #9785478

Congratulations on your new lens, Husain! With your knowledge and skill behind it I expect to see some remarkable images!
I think our Queen enjoyed herself here this time, although she did ignore us here in Sydney. #9785678
