Is this lens any good?

Just make sure you don't get one that zooms backwards.

70-24 f/2.8L ? :er:

So far, my Christmas presents to me have been a 5D MKII and a 24-70 f/2.8L. Man this has been a bad ass Christmas.

Wow! Someone must have been a good boy this year! Congrats on all the new stuff! (too bad it is Canon )

Looking forward to the shots!

When you zoom in, the front of the lens retracts.

Good thing it was Canon and not Nikon or it would not have fit his camera :lmao:

I finally got this yesterday. My one roommate (that's dating the other one) works that same schedule as me and she's never home. The other one's a bartender. He's never awake. They tried to deliver it at 12:05 and he was asleep, so I had to drive half an hour to the fed ex facility to get it. I only took four or five pictures last night as I was fixing dinner and had a bunch of other things going on. I'll be testing it out this weekend.

I really wish I could find a 5D MKII. I'd purchase it and cancel the pre-order on the one I currently have. I was looking at the Canon 15mm f/2.8 FE, but it's kind of pointless to order that if I'm still shooting with the 30D.
