I hadn’t realised just how ginormous my new zoom lens is compared to the old. Camera: Fuji X-T2. Old lens: Fujifilm XC 50–230mm f4.5–6.7 OIS II. New lens: Fujifilm XF 100–400mm F4.5–5.6 R LM OIS WR. The price is also suitably ginormous. Excited to start taking photos of birds. 📷

Ah! my back aches from the thought of hiking with that! 🤣 But I do envy you; I have had that lens on my wishlist for some time now.

@patrickT So far I've only taken 3 experimental photos at home with it. It's already feeling heavy! Now I also need to figure out how to carry it — my current not-a-camera bag may not be big enough!

Fun! And that lens looks big enough to give a bit of an arm workout while you use it. 💪
