BioSci Senior Member  More info | Dec 01, 2010 20:18 | #1 I was recently the recipient of a nice cash windfall (stock options and a corporate buy-out). I've always wanted a good camera, so I ordered a 7D kit with the 28-135mm lens. According to UPS, it'll be here tomorrow. I've been busy lurking here for the past week, and now I'm licking my chops at the prospect of breaking in this bad boy. I guess I know what's on tap for me this weekend. EOS R | EOS 7D

You will be back soon looking for advice on how to spend even more cash. Kevin

I've had mine for just about a year and it is my favourite. As someone has already said, say goodby to your cash there is a long way to go yet - like the ef-s 17-55 f2.8, the 70-200 f4 or f2.8, the 580EXii, perhaps the.............?
