:lmao:I feel for you. I'm doomed now. I participated in a workshop this morning with Jennifer Wu ( Majestic Peak Images?fine art nature photography by Jennifer Wu ) . The Canon rep was there with multiple things to play with. After shooting mostly with my own equipment, I tried the 70-200 MK II. Although I avoided them most of the morning (for fear of serious glass envy), I broke down and shot a few heron shots with the 1D Mk IV, the 500/4, and the 1.4X TC ( http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll249/icassell/CI7E3219-Edit.jpg ). Now there is no way I will ever be happy with anything shorter than a 400 and I'm trying to find a truck that has the 500 falling off the back.
On a different tack, I also tried the new 17mm TS ... what a beautiful piece of glass!
YOU SUCK!!!! LIKE BIG TIME!!!!!!!!!
I am so waiting for the 1D MkIV to show up with big brown. D@#* I hate weekends.
Frankly, although I liked the 1D, I'm very happy with my 7D and don't really lust after the 1D body. On the other hand, that lens is to die for.
For sports I love the advantages the 1D gives. Not so much fps but in focusing ability in various ways.
