My 70-200 f4 has landed in Australia fresh from B&H.
Not bad considering it was ordered only 2 days ago! Now i just need those customs blokes to call so i can pay them and it will continue the journey to photographic freedom! I would have liked to go for the f2.8, but wasn't quite in the budget... but it is still some great L glass to add to my kit. Just thought I would share that with everyone... :P Rob

Married? Sell the other half! Got kids? Get them working! Sell everything to fund the habit. Need more of the RED . Is there a cure for this insanity?

PLB there is a cure. Send all you L glass to me and sell your camera on ebay.

I'm not sure what the 70-200f4 cost but I just imported a 70-200f2.8 from B&H for about A$1800 (including freight, GST, & Customs Charges). it worked out around A$400 cheaper than buying locally.
