I want this lens just to see if I can get an image like this one!! It's the hand and heart behind it that makes it so fine, however. Shu

Hi Olaf,
The 135/f2 is quickly becoming a favorite. Thanks for your note! Roberta

Wow, this is just so awesomely crisp! New lens Roberta? From what I've read, the EF135/2 is possibly the sharpest lens made by Canon! I see it works great with a tele-converter too. I don't even have to ask if you like it - green is the color of envy (and by some funny coincidence also $$)! --Olaf

Karl,
This was taken at a hang gliding school at Jockey's Ridge State Park on Hatteras Island, NC...the largest sand dunes on the east coast. Sorry, I don't know anything about their setup for gliding! Roberta

sketchorama! You guys clip in with a single non-locker? And ones with the gate action so dead they don't even close properly? wow. I mean, static load and all, but 22kn vs about 8kn. Personal choice of course. :) Who am I to talk?

Is that sand in the background?

Cheers,
Karl P
