what you get ?
Canon 70-200mm IS L f/2.8 8) Found it for a good price on eBay as the filter thread had been dented, the lens worked perfectly though. Bought a very cheap stacking UV filter and manipulated it into the damaged filter thread, so now can mount filters on it. I get why people rate the L series lenses now.

Nice.

I've seen some great results with that lens on the R7 groups. No doubt you'll get some stunning images from the combo, look forward to seeing the results.

Very nice..... the fit & finish on Shark helmets is on a different level from just about anything else out there.

I’ve got 2 sharks including a carbon one. I love them. The carbon lid was bought post my spinal fusion to reduce the weight on my neck and it feels considerably lighter than the other helmet.

Hope you enjoy it Jon
