Here's my favorite shot I've taken with Canon 200mm f2.8L lens and an unmodified Canon 40D camera. I've had good results with the 50mm f1.4 (above f4.0 works best), 100mm f2.8, 200mm f2.8L.

Gotta love the wide field images and it's good practice getting the hardware and software to work together at a forgiving short focal length.
