Thanks. I was quite happy to receive it yesterday. The lens case is very nice compared to the one that comes with the f/4, not that I'm going to use it.
No need to cry, it's merely the non-IS model.
Yes Ronald, but mine comes with four tables and the caddy. :p Kind of a quick throw together shot, didn't really think to run the paper under the lens. Oh well.
I may be able to get out of the house this weekend and get some images of fall-time ducks. Now busy trying to set up my bags to carry it.

Oh gosh yes, it was four. What was I thinking/smoking?

I know what you mean about the bag. When you get a "great white", you really have to rearrange things. Congrats on a truly fine piece of glass.
