Testing the Toy

    by Aaron Hockley

    As I mentioned earlier, today I received a new lens, the Canon EF 135mm f/2L.

    I took a few photos tonight after work and must say I’m happy. Here’s a couple of typical foamer shots… first I caught a westbound manifest coming up to the Wintler crossing:

    Finally, Amtrak train 507 approaching the B yard in Vancouver:

      I’m curious, why do you need an f/2 lens for daylight photography? I’ve never had a problem shooting daylight with an f/2.8 lens.

      You must be thinking of using it when the light is low, right? I hope you will share a few of those with us.
