Not a KR fan but this is the most complete review so far.

he'll probably use it as a doorstop then write a review about it's effectiveness as a doorstop and gets lots of attention and praise...

He's got a good sense of humor with lines like this:

"II means twice as expensive as the first 24-70mm f/2.8 L."

:D

I hate his whole "support my growing family please buy from here" stuff, but otherwise the review was good.

He just needs to stop procreating and settle at making better reviews! He would probably get more views if so.

I am sure his reviews get lots of views since he even has fans in this forum and that has nothing to do with his credibility as a reviewer but more because of the masses who are as ignorant as ever.
