Beautiful lens and great choices. I know what you mean by hanging out here to much and seeing all the awesome shots by the other forum members. I bought a 135L and Sigma 50 f/1.4 recently and am also looking at the Sigma 17-50 as well.
I sure feel as though I'm doing my part to spur on the economy.

My sister, the professional baker and cake decorator once told me that my camera takes great pics. My reply was that I thought her oven baked great cakes. :lol:

I don't no maybe the grip will help improve.... With the 70-200 mounted on it feels more balanced with the grip than without. So yea I think I can get a more steady shot off? Anyway I like all my new toys so far.

Some nice gear you have there. Happy shooting.

Camera will balance better with the 70-200.

Dont know about the output quality of those, but they look sweet
