# Ah ha
I went out shopping today; meet my new Canon EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM lens, next to it's EF100-400mm F4.5-5.6L IS USM counterpart; I can almost hear R2-D2 chirping in the background

Not bad for having had it attached to my camera for about five minutes :)

# i know it's a camera, but that's the limit of my knowledge
i assume, since there are many letters involved in its name and you seem inordinately proud of it, that it's rather a good camera.

# Cheers :)
Very proud of it, and the opportunities all this kit has opened up for me

is jizz worthy mind you

# Yep
It is the most mental lens I have yet touched, I was only at the Zoo for two hours returning from the West End, but got home to 350 images I took on it; half of which are suitable for work and publication or signage. Money well spent methinks, especially given it's going to be happy sitting on the 5D mk.II body at the end of November on my shopping list

# The Nikon D300 is a lovely camera
but Canon is what i've grown to know, and what i'm going to build on for the foreseeable future, especially with the 5D mk.II, with a rather mental full frame, 21 million pixel sensor released in a month

Wildlife and animals are my cups of tea :D
