Hard to disagree. I did get the Sigma 24-70EX. But I'm trying real hard to stay away from EF-S. Although the 17-55 2.8 IS is making it harder. But for now I'm staying away. Then again the 17-55 2.8 IS is cheaper that a FF body. Your just trying to make it harder on me.

I'm learning photoshop now, and I'm thinking I might get some volunteer hours or something with some photographers I know around the corner who are doing a job for my family now. They have a bunch of white glass. Money is not really the biggest issue for me, it's more like "I need to validate to myself I deserve this." Once I get good at the skills of photography, or decent enough, I'll probably upgrade my lenses, sell the XTi (which I still need to buy, I had an XT, returned it because the XTi was coming out, and now am waiting for Bestbuy to get it in so I can use the gift card I have for $1k to buy it) and upgrade to a prosumer camera or something (which at the time will probably be a 40d or something.)

I'm still with just a single "L", my 70-200 IS. I keep working towards the 24-70, but each time its within reach the wife finds something "important" to wipe out any chances. The latest was a new patio door + window for the family room, I could have bought 4 for what the silly things cost. I feel you pain. Wife just got new roof and gutters! Damn! I should have been a roofer!!!!! Those guys make BANK!! Dante

DON'T! (Congrats on the lens) I have looked through a Nikon 300mm and it was pretty good. So I'm definately staying away from the Canon 300mm IS. 5D | 17-40L | Tammy 28-75 2.8 | 28-135 | 50/1.8 | 85/1.8 | Sony A6000 2-Lens Kit | SEL35 1.8 | EF 50 1.8 on NEX as my 75mm 1.8
