Well, I've gone & done it... I've bought L glass to go on my Drebel :D, namely the 70-200 L F4.

The sample images are here:-

Flower (http://lacking-lucidity.com/gallery/image_med/26/), The Mutt (http://lacking-lucidity.com/gallery/image_med/27/), Another one of the Mutt (http://lacking-lucidity.com/gallery/image_med/28/) , and a 100% crop (http://lacking-lucidity.com/gallery/image_med/29/)

They are straight out of the camera, shot RAW, with zero mods apart from some compositional cropping.

Personally I am absolutely stunned at the quality after using the 18-55usm lens that came with the camera and the 'Nifty Fifty'... but not as stunned as my poor (in all senses of the word!) credit card - there's another L on the way! :o

Will someone please tell me there's a cure for this fever?? Or if not, do Canon do L grade spectacle lenses so I can have the quality all my waking hours? ;)

There is no known cure for "L" Fever. It'll get worse from this point on. :)

Timm, love the pics, especially the Mutt!! Nice shots. Hopefully, I'll be joining you with some shots with the same lens soon! One thing about L lenses, at least they help keep the economy strong!! :)

Too many L lenses keep your back strong too! Having got the first one I already need a new bag as it's too dang big for the current Lowepro I have - more spending & more propping up the economy... I wonder if I could get a Business Assistance grant from the Govt. to offset the cost of the lenses?? ;)
