Yea, mine.  600mm f/4 IS L on a 5D shot without IS on a monopod.  When I
went to pick up the prints at Wal*Mart the girl behind the counter perked
up and said "Oh, you're the guy who printed those really nice pictures."

In the ensuing discussion I realized that it was probably the first time
I'd printed a picture that was equipment dependant.  I use my 24-70
f/2.8 L most of the time, and most of the pictures I take could be taken
by anyone on any camera.

I'm also impressed at how people treat me at the zoo now.  Most people
move away from me, point at me, and whisper amongst themselves.  Some
people ask my permission to photograph, or even sometimes just look at,
the same animal I'm photographing.

Perhaps the most amusing thing is when someone, who is possibly shooting
with a cameraphone, says "I bet you got a really good picture when he
came up close just now."
