Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM, although the sale (through Amazon UK) came through too late to dispatch it today. Another "L" lens which held its value really well but I did keep it in excellent condition during my period of ownership. 8)

Just one more lens to go now. Forum rules forbid my saying which one. :twisted: :lol:

I sold my Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 for $320 and got a EF 100mm f/2.0 (which I think is a superior lens) for the same price. Gotta love Craigslist.

Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM.

That's it, my last Canon lens so I'm no longer a Canon fanboy. :P

That also means that Canon will announce a CSC in the near future :roll: but the chances of them also announcing and making available in a timely manner the lenses I'd want to pair it with are slim IMHO so I've made the right decision to move on after five happy years.

Bob.

Sold my Sigma 50mm 1.4 .... No more need for inconsistent focusing!

and I wont buy any more Sigma either. The only one I will keep from sigma is the macro lens I've got.

Six firearms! One rifle, one shotgun, and four handguns went to a local federally-licensed dealer, for others to enjoy. How is this related to photography? Well, it was my last three lens purchases, plus a flashgun, that really compelled me to do this, as I do not wish to carry a load of debt to finance photography. (Canon 135L, Nikkor 50mm 1.8D and 50mm 1.4G, Canon 580EX II)

Gonna say goodbye to the TSE-24 soon, as well as some other accessories. Already got quote from dealer so I just need to say go. Will free up some cash for... something.

Sold my 40D. Haven't used it much since getting my 5D mkII, even at a wedding when I have it with me. Sold it for the Mrs.'s G12.

Next secondary camera will have to be full-frame, just can't go back. Well, I might go for the x1.3 sensor found in the 1D models.
