Excellent choices and seller. I've had all three lenses and would be happy to recommend them ... especially when spending Kerso Kash ;-)a

Now you just need to keep a watch for the small red van!

I'm having to contain myself at the mo, the wife thinks I am only getting the one lens. Not much she can do after they arrive, I've also got a new tamrac adventure 74 bag, remote release and a spare battery coming this week.

Me thinks I am in trouble

:lol: :lol: Yes ... didn't you know our postal service uses white vans with a red band across the body?

We can do brown vans too but they tend to arrive with Import Duty, VAT and Collection Fee invoices so we're less enthused about them.

Take a pic of her face when you open the box, and she realizes you have spent a ton of moola on those lenses. It could be one of those " pricless" moments. LOL J/K. I wish I could afford to buy 3 lenses right now. But I do have a B-day comming in March, maybe I can get my wife to get me some L glass.

If a white van with a red stripe pulls up to your house in the U.S. it ain't the mail.

Mines in March too 31st, I plan to ask her to get me the 100-300 sigma F4 ex dg, once the dust has settled anyway, my plan of attack is a guilt trip and then mention it is my 40th after all.
