My Sigma 30 f1.4 hasn't arrived yet but the Canon 200 f2.8L has !

What lens !

I had the 100-400L a while ago and this little beauty blows it away. AF is the quickest I've tried so far. And it's acurate first time every time, something I could never say about the 100-400 even in good light. I love the dimensions of it aswell. It's alot smaller than the Sigma 70-200 f2.8 I had previously but still has a decent "heft" to it, it balances perfectly with the 10D+Grip and it's built to the usual "L" standard.

I'll be posting some images soon.

Gary.

Glad to hear the good news.

My Christmas present to myself is almost complete. So far, I got the Rebel XT w/ the 18-55mm lense kit, and the 85mm f/1.8 lense. The boxes are under the tree, but there's nothing in them. Why wait until the 25th. I'm waiting for the 200mm f/2.8L lense now. I ordered it yesterday afternoon, therefore, I'm expecting it to arrive by next Wednesday. :lol:

This will complete my 2005 Christmas gift(s) to myself. And, again, maybe I'll get a couple of Chicago Bulls tickets. I got to try out the camera, right? :confused:
