Such a difference from the 300D. 2.5" screen is crazy and camera feels great in your hands. Just thought I would do as everyone else does and let my fellow POTN members know. Also took a picture of what is currently take up space in my bag.

You were very specific in your selections and just wonder why those and not something else? I hope this question makes sense. Sony A7RII, 16-35 f2.8 GM, 24-70 f2.8 GM, 85 f1.4 GM

You were very specific in your selections and just wonder why those and not something else? I hope this question makes sense. Well I hate to tell you, they were all impulse buys, just based on what I wanted for a specific set of shots. I still want a 85 1.8 & 70-200 F4 L for zoom. Those will come later though. I do currently have the 75-300, but yuck, not really satisfied with that lense, so I barely ever use it. 30D & 5D MKII | BG-E2 | 10-22mm | 28mm 2.8 | 50mm 1.4 | 85mm 1.8 | 420 EX | Photogenic Studiomax III | Bogen 3001N & 804RC2

I had the IS version, it was my first tele-zoom that I bought with my camera. At first I thought it was great, but once I tried it over 200mm I lost all hope with it. Its ok, she's gone now and I have an L that i'm much happier with, you should try it. Canon 300d/black gripped
