Renting a Canon Zoom Lens

Featured Post Image - Renting a Canon Zoom Lens

I rented a zoom lens from Aperturent in Sandy Springs.  I wanted to see what zoom lens I wanted to take with me to Africa.

  • Canon 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM
  • https://aperturent.com/products/732/Rent-canon-100-400mmL-is-ii-usm

This is my first zoom lens and what I learned was that after shooting, remember to return the lens back to it’s original position so you can be ready to take the next shot. If you don’t you’ll never find the subject matter while super zoomed in.  Also, it’s a very heavy lens, so I had to use the monopod.

Here are some shots zoomed out and zoomed in.
