and yes! for bringing us from Canon lens to political polls, not mentioning toasters and fried eggs, the L is definitely enchanting ;)

Almost as if it comes straight out of a fairytale!

*(and Krepta, did I mention yet that I was enchanting?) :lol::lol:

Hehe. With you as enchanting as the L (or is it, the L as enchanting as you?), it is somewhat surprising that you should side with L. Unless, of course, it is to make distinct the enchantment that is going on?

I love your location, I want mine zeroed out too ;)

That's funny, I wish the opposite for me, rising, just to see... (I would probably end up regretting it, huh?) But I will not allow myself to post just for the sake of posting. It has to be significant, certainly, just as this thread is!

Why scan it? Just take pictures of it with your 24-105L. The quality will be way better than you'd ever get with the 24-105L. :)

You know, I'm a bit disillusioned because of how this thread has deteriorated. It has become a debate between the 24-105L and the 24-105L.

Nowhere do we see a discussion that could be more vital: which is better, the 24-70L, or the 24-70L? Is that a worthy discussion, or what? The last I heard, the L has gps and could launch RPGs!

Comments, please, unless they are classified!

Oh! Are the L's breakfast functions, then, simply a cover-up for what is really a new high-tech weapon? Maybe it is no wonder that the L could not pass OL9245's tests! If you are right, tonylong, then the L excels at a whole different kind of shooting than the L. :eek:

Just bear in mind, krepta, that we are going to the source of this thread, now, because the truth has been obfuscated:

The true weapn is the 24-70L!

Oh, surely not! I found your bag reviews pretty helpful (unless you are speaking of my wallet). That's at least one person who does not think all your posts are pointless!
