My job has nothing to do with photography or tech actually. I buy all these things myself.

Kinda took a break from PC modding and tweaking, used the extra cash on photography equipment.

sell your 70-200 f4L and buy a 70-200 2.8 L IS MKII - I was a skeptic until I tried it. Best lens I've ever used imo

Heh, i'm planning on selling my 70-200 but not for a f/2.8 MK II. I'll be picking up a 135L :drool: , it fits my use better. I still got my 100-400L for telephoto. :thumbsup:

My setup i think will compete with a MK II in IQ. 100L macro for the 100mm focal length, 135L well.. for 135mm obviously, 135L + 1.4x extender = 189mm yet still f/2.8. I may buy a 85L II before bing cashback ends on july 31 also. Got the range covered!


Anyone interested in my 70-200L? It's crazy sharp wide open. :P

85L II

Best portrait lens ever made for a 35mm body.

It's also very unforgiving shooting at f/1.2. And also very unforgiving on the wallet :mellow:

I heard the learning curve on it is fairly.. steep. :D

Practice shooting then :P

No point having all the equipment in the world when you aren't putting it to use.
