Some time ago I had to let go some of my precious toys (5DMKII and some other things) because of $ issues. Well I'm happy to be almost back on track and with new toys.
I just ordered a new 5DMKII with some accessories, and just for the celebration I'll be ordering very soon a beastie glass (70-200 IS II) Oh man that feels awesome just to say it!

I might die of anything except of that damn depression for getting rid of my babies :D
Oh and my lovely wife totally supported it, Gee I'm a lucky man!

Now, lets wait for the UPS truck...hmmm he should be here any minute now...any minute hmmm, actually 2 days.... any minute...

Sometimes losing something shows one how important it just may be to oneself.

I am glad that you are able to find a way, with the support of your wife, to procure some handsome equipment. Good Luck!!!


just a few of my thoughts...

Everytime I see a UPS truck, I always think of all the amazing things that could be in there and if only I could get my hands on them.

Thank you all for such nice words.

Haven't use it yet, bad weather + bit sick, uff, can't wait any longer.

Cheers,

Alex
