Congratulations.
Now its time to work harder not only to enjoy your toy but to make more money as these things with their seductive lipsticks are very contagious!
I see more to come soon.

Congrats. It was my first L as well, and I still own it 5 years later. It's a great piece of glass.

Thankyou all!
I will enjoy. Debated on it for quite a while and came across a price that was too good to pass up!

PS. If anyone is wondering, the photo was taken with my 100mm(non L) in natural light. My car to be exact.

Yep. L lenses are a slippery slope! Once you have one, others will follow...

Congrats! I remember dreaming of my first L lens, and then magically most of my lenses were Ls.... Weird how it happens.

You will love this lens! I have an old 70-200 f4 L and I love it. It's the best lens I own. Enjoy!

I havent been registered that long over here, and one thing i found is that the 70-200 F4/L is one (if not the one) first L lenses bought. Mine was! :p

Enjoy your purchase. A solid performer for sure!
