Nice. I want the Canon L 70-200, very similar bit of kit.
Just can't justify spending the money at the moment though!

Yes i thought long and hard, but if you have the best tools with what ever you do, it helps you get the finished product that little better. Still crying at my bank balance though lol.

Very nice bit of kit, only slightly envious.

I recently spent a wodge on one of these:

Which I've been seriously impressed with (just need to work on my skills) but I've been well and truly top-trumped

What body are you using? Is there a D3H?

Yes could Joey, But it's not a massive zoom, there are much bigger zoom lenses, i have an 80-400 which would be better for that.........

Here's one with my old 80-400, i did have to crop it a little as it's was still a but away lol

Nice bit of kit there, My old man brought a Canon 30D and a 100-400 Is lens last year. so about £1800 worth of kit. He had to get it delivered to my house and then tell me mum that he brought it all from a friend of mine for £300 second hand. She would have gone mental if only she knew the truth!!!

On the plus side i have got something on him now and i can borrow it whenever i want.. Which is nice.

I never thought I'd say this to a bloke but you have a very nice body. I keep lusting after a D1h but I have to keep telling myself it's just a toy that I don't need where as yours pays for the mortgage.

Luke that's funny, but sounds so true *wink*
Yes John, long over due now for a catch up.

Going to give it a go Carl, it might work out, just have to try *wink*
