HoHoHo (your official wishlist)

300 f 2.8 IS

That's it. I have shot the 500, and it's just too much to lug around. A real PITA. I will try both the 400 and 300 this season and then make my final decision before starting the dream lens savings account.

my realistic wish list: (to be executed within 2 months):

85 L
TS-E 45
300 2.8 IS L
Mp-E 65
35 L

I just treated myself to an early gift (20d)and gave my 300d,kit lens and 10yr old 70-300 usm to my brother for christmas! I like to give and not just recieve!.........I would like a 24L or 35L prime though.:p HAPPY HOLIDAYS everyone!!! Dave

Heres my wish list (not much of a list really)

Canon EF 1200mm
Or I could slum it with a EF 600mm f4

Everyone has to have a dream

580EX Flash
Light Meter

50% WESLH/ 50%Engish Hair here!, I'll give you a good deal since it's pure and all, That 70-200MM IS looks good still, last chance

Wishlist list

300 f/2.8

I'll probably get Extension tubes and an RRS BH-40 ballhead.

my nephew who is in Iraq and also all the men and women serving in Iraq come home safely.....

Cheers to that!

Since I got my 20D three months ago, Santa ain't bringin' me squat. I'll be happy with a new pair of slippers.

My wish list.
16-35 2.8
24-70 2.8
28 1.8
50 1.4
85 1.8
70-200 2.8 IS
100-400
300 2.8
400 2.8
1.4 TC
5D

Really, I want the war to be over, my brother and all service people home.

Well I am still abit indecisive. Handsdown it is sharp as heck, even
wide open @ F/4. The IS is like a dream come true for me too
I had a chance to met "fslshooter" twice and the first time he let me
use his Canon 300mm F/2.8L IS. I loved it. The second time he let me
use a Tokina 300mm as well, again liked it but not as much as the Canon

So it helped convience me a prime was sharp, "L" was awesome, IS was
handsdown the best thing since sliced bread. *deep breath* Sooo to
conclude I love my lens just need to use it more to make a more in-depth
determination on if I will keep it or sell to fund a 100-400L (the one I was aiming for)

Canon EOS-1D Mark II N sounds pretty enticing, but I got the 20D/grip, 70-200 2.8 IS and whole bunch of other stuff about two weeks ago, not sure I can justify it to myself. Hey, it is a wishlist, isn't it?

If you think the 500 is too much to lug around you might as well skip trying the 400...

...the 300 with 1.4x is a good alternative though.

.... my daughter back ....
.... my father in good health ....


Ho,ho,ho,,,
35/1,4L and 135/2 L
not to mention about Mark II

If I was going to be executed in 2 months I would go for more than that !!!
