no photoshop, done in camera
Hey there again,
You have priced this lens very fairly no question, I do not mean to insult you with a lower offer, but I had $ saved up for a new 5D mklll body and lens, which came to roughly $5,000.00, which my lovely wife has allowed (but no more). I am offering you that amount for the 600mm and will wait to upgrade the body (MUCH)later if your willing to lower your already low price. I am sending back the 400mmL 5.6 I got last week because it just doesn't reach out quite enough for my needs. I will understand completely if this offer is unsatisfactory and thank you for your time.

the flash units move around the ring so can be positioned anywhere, I have the extensions so can reach out to 12" past the ring
tripod in background with a dowel and clips is for holding things still during shooting
I have had mine now for about 4 months and have pictures that I couldn't get without it. I have moved from the lens mount to RRS setup and love it. I use diffusers on it to cut down on the reflection from eyes and carapaces. it makes handholding MUCH easier, I shoot in manual mode 200-250sec at f13. My keepers went up considerably after I procured it. I'm shooting with a Canon 5D mkll with the 100mm 2.8L IS USM. I would do it again without a doubt.
