Yeah the 100-400 is a great lens. Certainly easier to justify too.

 

With 4 stops of IS it is pretty incredible what you can do. It is exhausting to hand hold due to the weight, but I almost always have it on the monopod slung over my shoulder. My chest harness is great, minus the fact the lens hood hits my knees!

 

Lol need to get taller hahaha

 

Haha that would be great for many things. There's just no getting around just how large the lens is. Here it is next to the 100-400 fully extended.


The lens diameter is also massive.

For perspective most lens come in a pouch, this comes in a hard case.

 

fawkin uuugggee!!

 

It certainly was bigger than I anticipated so far I do love it, but lots to learn with it.

In unrelated news, the AMG is cleaned up and photographed, ready to be sold at auction. This one hurts, but it's for good reasons.

 

lookin spiffy. Where you selling it?

 

Cars and bids. Mostly curious to see how it does. It's sold twice in there before I got it, $18,750, then I bought it for $17,750. The market is way softer now, it has more mileage and a could new dings. Plus, I will disclose EVERYTHING that I know is wrong, unlike the previous sellers... So my mind is set to expect $13k. Any more I'm happy, any less, I'll be a little sad. Of course it'll be no reserve!

 

Well good luck! Hope it works out.

 

Thanks man. I'm not too worried about it. I'll miss the car, the sensation of speed and the ear-gasms.

 

Im sure there will be another one! Once you get the storage unit garage

 

You getting here on the 4th @Blackdawg or heading to the lake on the 4th?

 

Both! Should be there a little after lunch and then head to the lake. Would love to meet up for a bit if possible and say hi.

 

Yeah, should be wrapped up with the parade by then and home chillin hopefully. We are on the way so you can stop in whenev

 

I'll definitely text you!

 

Zane what water to air intercooler did you use? @Speedytech7

 

One of the stock Behr ones from a Mercedes TT V12. They're a dime a dozen on eBay. Specifically the right side intercooler from a SL65

Thanks I did some digging and found that but just wanted to confirm.

 

You gonna install that kit you have on Igor?

 

Hell no. The little red truck!

Just piecing together things and figuring out budget. I have a lot of it of course but need haltech and turbo. Then lines and things. Was just looking at intercooler things last night.


Also you ever use a QSV? Found a cool one that's water cooled. I bet that's be fun for me.
