Adorama will test them out before they ship it if you ask them. THere are details in a few threads around here, I guess it's not an official Adorama thing, but something that Helen and her boss came up with.

Is there an additional cost for doing that? A lens can vary from body to body.

Nope. And yeah, I know it varies from lens to lens, but it's a step they're willing to take to give you a better chance it will work alright.

There's another post that explains it more, but I can't find it. They'll test the lens on a body of the same model you have. She said one time they had to go through 5 copies of the lens to find one without a focus shift issue.

so... leaning towards the 16-35. I think the sale ends soon and I gotta order before passover if I want to get it anytime soon. I just always wanted a fixed lens kit but... I can't think of anything more useful to me then the 16-35.

I say sell your 24-70L and pick up a 135L & 16-35L!

Hey Baan, what happened to Ken Rockwell? Hasn’t been on in MONTHS! :shock:

I like it better than the old style (with all the side scrolling). Though I don't like how the menu changes going from the home page to the sub pages, especially since you can link directly to two, but not directly to the other two. I like the subpages design better than the home page anyway. (Just my opinion)

I would anchor the picture on the homepage at the top though. When you have a shorter window it starts cutting off her head.

And yeah, your FB link is broken. Well the one on the homepage. I would probably spell facebook out there too, instead of just having the FB. The logo button on the other pages is fine, but the FB is weird.
