Canon lens to borrow - Anything above 85mm :)

Postby surenj on Sat Sep 11, 2010 6:59 pm

Hi Everyone,

Would someone be willing to trust me to a canon (or compatible) long lens to use for the airshow next week? I don't have anything above 85mm. I guess something in the order of 200 or higher is preferable.

It will be returned safely on the 25th Sep.

Many thanks!

Suren

or pls PM me.

Met someone that owns the 800mm Canon lens last night!! Not sure that he would be willing to lend it to anyone :D

Haha! I won't be able to carry that one. Also I'd need to dig a hole in the ground so that I can get the whole airplane in the photo. :rotfl2:

I have an offer of 75-300 from the sundancer flickr group. Anyone with a 300 f4? :wink: [I'll leave my passport with you..]
