70-200 4L and 2.8L and with IS and without IS, isit alot of different? I am aiming one of these lense next...

the weight is a concern... 2.8L IS weighs 1.5kg.. hahah after you take all those girls' pictures, your hand cannot raise already..
*
2.8 works better in low light condition, but the weight of the lens is 2 times more. With IS, slightly heavier, can reduce handshake and easier for panning. 4L IS is a 3rd gen IS that can work up to 4 stops while 2.8L IS is a 2nd gen IS that can work up to 3 stop

Lousy lenses don't get threads of their own tongue.gif

I guess there should be something special about an item rather than just ownership to justify a thread. Maybe a "High Quality Lense Thread" would be better

I'm actually more in support of opening a Leica Summilux, Zeiss Superachromat and Apotar thread. I can only wish to own both of the latter. Can't help it, i'm starting to dislike Jappy lenses as keep seeing the sharpness from their Conti cousins sad.gif

maybe we should.
or maybe i should open a '150mm APO LANTHAR' lens thread.
this lens is radioactive.
put this tiny lens into your pants pocket and chances are, you won't be making any girls pregnant every again.

it's a company set. anything wrong with it, send it back to me for service with canon malaysia, we cover the expenses.

get it right before making a purchase,

it doesnt come with a warranty card becoz this is an oversea set which has not been sold out during the clearance sale at other country, so they have to transfer it to our country to cover the losses and my friend bought it for cheap. it's brand new and unused. we will give out an invoice so that u can make the claim if anything goes wrong.

right now have to order since we dont have stock.

for grey set(japan set), the price is not very convincing to sell it out. its almost similar with local retail price.

TQ for the explanation. The price is not bad actually, Amazon.com sells it for ~Rm2130 after conversion.
I would like to get a UWA but this lens is only 17mm on a FF body, on crop sensor, not UWA enough.

Sigh, the 10-22 is not an L and still same price.

problem is i got to pay in full and have to wait for your stock. there's much to much to loose and it is very risky on my part.
if only you accept a 10% deposit while the remaining balance is paid upon delivery, i might probably buy the 16-35 f2.8L and 70-200 f2.8L IS from you.

3 months local set. Means 3 months warranty left? or used for 3 months only then he sell it off?

How old is the lens anyway?

amazon.com price = Rm3.1 K also.

Hurrr, getting my 3 50mm lenses today, right after i pay the tax for them.

50mm 1.2L (New)
50mm 1.4 Zeiss Planar (New)
50mm 2.0 Summicron (2nd hand, bloody good price)

Will play between the Zeiss and the Canon L and sell one off next month. Jualed my 16-35 and 25-105 to a friend to sponsor this 50mm madness. Stupid 5D still back focusing, very mempersialkan, will drive to Brissy during holidays next week to get it calibrated.
