Bellatrix Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 (edited) ....I bought my new toy!! My first L series lens that ive been wanting ever since I hired it a couple of months ago.... the Canon 24-70mm 2.8L Lets just say this is my Christmas present to myself for the next 10 years! Next will be the 5D MkII but not for a little while now! Just had to buy this baby!! ETA - Im so glad the L series lenses come with a lens hood and lens bag. Im scared to take it out the box in case I break it Edited May 21, 2010 by Bellatrix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlc Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Ahhh Photos if you don't mind!! Congrats on your new baby!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 wow, congratulations. I hadn't thought about this lens much until some here started tallking about it and then I thought it would cover the range I dont have, I've got a 50 and 100 prime but the only zoom I use covers 70-200 and that lens of yours would fill the gap nicely. Have you actually started using it yet? Better post some piccies real soon. For my sake I hope you really hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirislin Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 OK, so we've seen a pic of the lens, now how about some pics FROM the lens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Love to hear what you think of the lens. I love prime lenses and want the 24mm prime lens, but this one is very tempting simply because it will mean less changing of lenses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
