5dii next then is it?

 

[Darren Turner]

Defo next buy

 

[Hamish Gill]

good man! full frame agogo ... i guess you could flog the 40d to put toward it anyway ... then you just need a 17-40 to replace the sigma ... then sack of the 7d and 17-85 and get a 5dmk1 ... then you will be completely done of aps-c! ... hehehehehe

Nice lens I was tempted when I bought my 24-105 F4 , but not long enough for me although plenty of cropping available with the full frame 20+ megapixel cameras. ( not that I have full frame yet)

If only they made a 24 -200 f2.8 that was lightweight and cost less than £1000

5D mk3 cant be far off now as Mk 2 is almost 3 years old

A 16-35 f2.8 L II would be good expensive though:

cant belive the 5dmkii in nearly 3 ... doesnt time fly!!!

24 -200 f2.8 that was lightweight and cost less than £1000

i was thinking that ... make is a 16-200 2.8 with a full frame image circle ... i suspect there might be some flaws to iq
