Just curious as to which L's are weather sealed? Been searching, but I would like a complete list. Just for my curious mind, that's all. Thanks.

It seems to me that it won't explode and die in a light rain if you don't spend to much time out there, however. --Alex Editorial Portfolio

Oct 20, 2006 10:33 | #5 Well, I figured with all the people who own 'weather-sealed' 1 series cameras, I figured there may be true 'weather-sealed' lenses. Otherwise, what's the real point of a weather sealed body, if the lens isn't going to fit the same bill? MCSquared Photography
