UPS man left me my big white lens.

I read so much about the 70 200L IS 2.8 I had to have one. So I sold my 70 200L IS f/4.0 and 85 f/1.8 to finance it. Hope I made the right move.

I'm jealous.. I'll admit it

Good, now go get a picture of a duck and come back and post it!

Congrats!

Cant wait to get my non IS tommorow. hahaha.

:P

Love mine big time. It's a bit heavy but can do great things.

ill be slowly upgrading to one. i just purchased the 70-200 f/4 off my friend for $460 with a b+w uv filter. i fell in love with this lens right when i got it.

what makes you switch from F/4 IS to F/2.8 IS

A stop different w/ 2X the weight

Why? I don't care to see what the UPS man looked like Now if it were of the UPS woman

you and me both buddy.


I'm talking about the lens, I want to see the lens.

I bought mine about 2 weeks ago and it hasn't come off the camera yet! Love it....

When I bought the f4 IS, it was with the idea that it was just to hold me over until I can afford the rest of the $$ to go towards a 2.8 IS. Then a friend bought his 2.8 IS, and I got to play with it quite a bit. Now the 2.8 IS is no longer in my my plans, and I seem to be drawn towards a 100-400, a 150-500 or a 300 f4 IS... or a 10-22

I'm starting to save for my 70-200.. hopefully before christmas

I just did the exact same thing- sold the 70-200 f4 L IS and 85mm f1.8 and bought the 70-200 f2.8 L IS. It is bigger/heavier, seems to be as sharp even wide open, and a full stop faster. I'm happy with the decision since I'm doing some weddings, portraits, and stage events, the extra speed will be necessary.

among the best lenses in the world you will be pleased
