being the owner of a sigma 70-200, and walking around race tracks, some people i walk by do have the lens envy! aahahah!!

And I guess that if you had a big lens, they would really have something to envy

Dude... come on.

'Where you gonna stick that?'

Rude people I tell ya.

I hate this thread with every count as it nears a million views.

Not to get off subject, but I think 1 million views officially qualifies as epic...

I was at at the Derby this year and a woman sitting near by said she had penis envy.

Several other people commented on my camera, but there were a lot of people that had serious camera equipment there in the stands.

She's straight to the point...

When I bounce flash, I'm often told, "Hey, your flash is pointing up."

To which the proper response is "Yes and we both know why don't we"

In a word... sad

Me or the woman?

So I was setting up my SXI and 70-200 in Marin for a panorama of San francisco. an old man with a fairly nice camera himself, and asks me if it was the 300L. I told him that It was the 70-200 and he said that they were to heavy for his liking, then asked me about the IS on it. I told him I didn't have the IS version and he said "you bought the wrong lens boy." Without even thinking i replied back "Perhaps, but I'm young and strong, and have plenty of time to haul around a tripod and a heavy lens."

I felt a bit bad 5 minutes later when I realized exactly what I said.

I'm laughing so hard I'm starting to cry.

LOL! Wow! hahahaha as inapropriate as the comeback might have been... it was the EXACTLY right one! LOL well done! any random person on the street that wants to give out advice like that should be able to take straight advice!

don't feel too bad about it. several people got a smile from it.
