I just ordered two new lenses after selling 3 of my other ones.

Said goodbye to my 70-200F4L - 28-135IS and my 120-300F2.8EX!

Just ordered my new 24-105F4LIS and my 70-200F2.8LIS! Silly

I can't wait to have a play with the new toys!

So if anyone has any shots to post from either lens to get me more excited feel free to!

Chris

Now when are you going to get the 500mm F/4 L IS? That is the reeeeeal question. Wink

Congrats on the new purchases. You will enjoy the 24-105mm F/4 L IS. It’s a blast to use. I haven’t used it a lot, only for testing my ex 30D (New one will be here tomorrow) but on the 20D in limited use, it performed nicely.

Enjoy the 70-200mm F/2.8 L IS. I have considered this, although I am personally leaning toward the 135mm F/2 L and the 200mm F/2.8 L being my next lenses instead. It’s safe to say my next body (or two? Wink

) in a couple years will be 1 series bodies.

Have fun!

The 135F2L is a good lens! If i start shooting more indoor sports i will be getting one but for now i dont have the need.

I do however have a need for a 200F1.8L! Big grin

If things go to plan then that may also join my kitbag come September/October time! Big grin

Chris -

I upgraded from the 70-200 f4 to the 70-200 f2.8 IS in April - and I love it. I use a Canon 2.0 II extender as well, and the combo produces outstanding shots.

70-200 f2.8 IS:
