      Thats one ive never owned.. Ive owned the 300/2.8 none IS and used it for air shows.. it was a nightmare, a friend has the 400/5.6 its much friendlier for planes and birds in flight..

      Congrats ... it'll also make a fantastic short scope when you get another ATIK 383 :P

    5D MkII in my hands, better learn how to use it now.

    1. Coco

      Coco

      Awesome! , your going to love it, bet it will make a great wide field camera ... you know you will do :P

      Now you need the 50 f/1.2 L like I had .. here are some samples for Preston Harly Davidson http://www.pbase.com/walshy/preston_harley_davidson

    2. Earl

      Earl

      I have been reading up on the 50mm and a few site say the the 1.4 has the edge over the 1.2. More reading needed :)

    3. Coco

      Coco

      Nah... the bokeh and colour from the 1.2 is awesome, by f/1.8 its razor sharp.. I had both at the same time, the 1.4 was only really sharp at f/2.8. I never had the 35/1.4L my all accounts that's outstanding wide open..

      Am getting camera envy :D check out the new 70D release today ... looks good..

  10. Earl
