I visited the Forest Park Zoo today with my Canon 1-Dx camera and my 500 mm f/4 lens to see how that combination would work together. I absolutely love what that lens can do. It captures colors perfectly and it has great bokeh. LOVE that bokeh.

The downside is its bulk. You get quite a workout lugging it around. But, as expected, the lens worked great with the 1-Dx.

The photo above is of an East African Crowned Crane. This is one of my favorite subjects when I visit the Zoo.
