It won't be on film that's for sure :-) It seems to me that you're wrong - people here are desperately trying to convince me that their expensive lens is worlds better. You said it yourself, you just threw out your other lenses. There is also no way to prove anything with photo 'tests'. If I feel the lens is working for me and I like the pictures I get from it, I will keep and use it. I started this whole thing by saying I was getting a lens soon. Then everyone started basically telling me that their L lens blows away the lens I'm getting. I have an opinion of those people which I'm keeping to myself, but suffice it to say that there are many pros out there using this lens daily and they are very happy with it. I might become one of them, or I might not. -- Jim Davis, Nature Photography http://jimdavis.oberro.com/ Standard Poodles for fun BMW motorcycle for pleasure * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
