Got this idea at BBSP since the widelife was not being photo friendly yesterday.

Both pics were taken from the same tripod.....Yes I should of used the same crop factor but I forgot.

17mm on a 1.6x crop sensor (40D+17-40L):



560mm on a 1.3x crop sensor (1DmkiiN+400L+1.4x):

27.2 call it 28 vs 728 would be more accurate.

But thanks for the examples :)
