Ok, so I pulled the trigger on my 70-200 f/2.8L IS USM from B&H this morning. And it's all your fault. 3-5 day shipping, I'm hoping the processing with be done tomorrow morning so they can get it out and I'll maybe have it by the 5-6th....YEAH! I cannot wait:D:)

I assume you got the 24-70 F2.8 L to go with it, right? Or the 17-55 F2.8 IS? The 17-55 is the perfect compliment to the 70-200 :p

Shipping from B&H is usually super fast. Ordered my 70-200 2.8L on the 26th and it arrived yesterday (the 29th). Can't get over how fine this piece of glass is.

lol, not just yet, but I wish. I'm 18, going to college this fall, and I being me, buys a $1600 lens, lordie what have I (or you guys) gotten me into! But ya know, my present to myself last year was a $1300 saddle, and then my money when I went to Europe, I deserve something nice for graduating, and besides it's my money screw what the family thinks...and it seems like I gotta do somethin about this, looking at the trend of going up $300 every year, by the time I'm 25, I'll be buying myself (If I got my math correct) a $3700 gift!

yea I know warmpepsi, but the thing I'm worried about is 4th of July, does UPS work on the 4th?

p.s. don't mind about my typing right at the moment as it's a little screwy due to downloading the beta version of Vista things are writing in front of others though I know I'm not the one doing it. and when I try to get it to do it, it won't...figures.

Don't blame us, it's your strive for perfection that's the problem trying to get every last bit of detail clear and sharp... Oh what the 'L is what I say, camera bodies die, glass lives for ever (well nearly)... :)
