Have fun with it. I also use an S-series focusing screen. It helps, but when it's dark, it gets harder to see. Especially dances at weddings. But overall, I prefer it over the standard screen.

Well, then can I introduce you to a little known lens called the EF 200mm f/2.0 L IS? It is the gold standard of gold standards for prime.

:lol:

Congrats! :D Of course you know what's going to happen next right? You're going to see how brilliant the 50L is on the 5d2 and it will only be a matter of time before you're craving an 85LII. Trust me, it will happen. ;)

Hmm. I was reading MrXon's statment more like "MAN -- You are Lucky!" rather than "you are A lucky man". Isn't the English language wonderful . . .

Hehe... I don't have one for sale. I'd like to have the lens but this absolutely no way I could justify picking up the 200/2 unless I win the lottery.
