This reminds me of Blazing Saddles...Nothing serious, but a funny situation. Today I was sitting at a stoplight in my car, and saw a hot air balloon just launching up. I had my XSi with 70-200 f/2.8L IS and 2x extender attached (hood on the 70-200 of course). I rolled down my window, and held it outside to take a shot. 2 kids in the backseat of a car next to me got frightened, and the mom & dad yelled "What the heck is that???" The Rebel series bodies only make the white glass look bigger. Not to mention, hood attached and 2x on there.
"Excuse me while I whip this out!"
And for the price, you could buy a rocket launcher on the black market... err, so I've heard.just be glad you weren't using the sigma monster lens (that 200-500mm f2.8!) Now that really is a rocket launcher (it even comes in green!)
