Nice shots! What settings are you using? Makes me want to mount my Nikon 300 f/4 to my E-PL2!

Wow, great shots! It just shows that old glass can still produce. I use my EF 400mm f5.6L on my Gf1 and it's great fun.

Don't really want to imagine the size of this lens. 400/3.5 The front element must be larger than 10cm in diameter.

Can you clarify which Canon FD lens it is? I've seen Canon 400mm's in a 2.8, a 4.5 and a 5.6. They have a 500mm f3.5. Just curious for my own knowledge.
Thanked by eno789.
