If anyone's considering this one, it looks like my old 17-35. There was a scratch on the front element that doesn't show up on prints, but it was NOT confirmed by Canon. Focus mechanism was broken and fixed at Canon.

Not a 100% sure it IS my old one, but if there's a "crescent moon" shaped scratch, thats the one. :D

Cute shots Tommy, #1 with your daughter running to Mom and #2 with all those different colored hats are my favs.

I use the smoothness and contrast sliders the most to see what looks best with zero sharpness on NN for people.

It's only $950 for lens, $1100 is with 2x extender. Deals are unbelievable this month for higher end stuff. Lens was built on 11/07 so less than a year old.

Good shot...I like how you can read the caption on his shirt..."Your smile has a special magic that always makes me happy"...but not today.

Yeah, great expressions. Funny how the girl and boy have the same body positioning, but the girl just runs like a girl. I like seeing the activity in the background too...some short attention spans.

Thanks for sharing!

Wow, that's an even better deal! Wish I could buy it...oh well...

Linkzi wrote in post #6517810 (external link)
$1100 is with 2x extender.

So with the 2x extender you basically have a 140-400mm lens?

Linkzi wrote in post #6517810 (external link)

Really. I noticed lots of 5Ds and 20/30/40Ds for sale...looking to upgrade to the 5D MkII and 50D I guess.

Saw that too, but its NOT an IS. Title says it, but not the description. If it was, I would have just bought it and turned around and sold it. :lol:


*EDIT*
As soon as I hit "post reply", another 70 comes up! This one even cheaper! Looks like a price war on CL.
http://honolulu.craigs​list.org/oah/pho/88416​2887.html (external link)

But in addition to the new Canons, could some photographers be feeling the pinch of the economy too? This could be another reason for lower prices and fast sales.

Now a non-IS would make more sense at that price.
