Congrats . . . . idiot.

Just kidding! (hey, it's YOUR poll!).

Enjoy. If me not having one makes you an idiot, then you get my vote! (I don't even know what that means!!)

Whether I vote idiot or not depends on how much you paid :)

I use mine for studio and location beauty. if you look at my website you can see it does its job. its a great lens, i dont need IS imo. and I love being able to use 2.8 instead of f4

I can't imagine this lens without IS, which increases its usefulness by a great margin. Personally, I would have put that money toward the IS model.
