Just pulled the trigger on 4 lenses

Haha, finally - after months of deliberations decided to give myself a treat with these 4 lenses (and selling one):

- TS-E 17mm f/4L
- EF 35mm f/1.4L USM
- EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM
- EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro IS USM

Selling off the much neglected 50mm f/1.4 USM (50 on FF a bit boring for me) and I currently have:

- EF 17-40mm f/4L USM
- EF 24-105mm f/4L IS
- EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM

on one 5D Mark II. Now playing the waiting game and hoping it will arrive really soon! Will post pictures =)

Yeah, that's the least you can do after killing my day with such a strong list of lenses

Wow, must be nice

I could never wait long enough to buy all 4 at the same
You may also want to look at getting another camera body.

Wow, those are some awesome lenses. It's going to be a long wait for the delivery truck.

Congratulations that's an amazing set of lenses, in my opinion i would only change the 100mm for the 135L but all the rest it's just perfect,

I'd love to add that 17mm tilt shift and the 100mm IS L to my kit. That's quite an order. Hope the UPS man doesn't drop that box!

I'm with you on the 50mm 1.4. It sees no use on my cameras.

it looks like christmas in march!

Primes... nice direction to move into. I am seriously jealous of the 17 TS-E!

I can't imagine giving myself a $6500 'treat.' Of course, my whole kit costs more than that, but it was built over a long time. I hope that in 10 years, my career is such that I can do such things. It may very well be, but we'll see.

That's a lot of money there....

yeah, wow

usually these threads are like "I just bought a nifty 50, can't wait for it to arrive" not a "just bought all these lenses everyone wants" kind of thread.

congrats.

I think the only thing you missing now is the 135L
The 35L 85L and the 135L are supposed to be "the great ones"

Haha, thanks guys! Saved up for this over a long time - really can't wait.

I think the 70-200/2.8IS can act as a substitute for the 135L (albeit without the razor sharpness of the latter though).

Wow expensive treat!
