I got the Aus equivalent of ~200 Euro back on my 17-85IS, and I still think it was way overpriced compared to many other lenses. Thankfully the number of competing camera's with built in IS has caused Canon to reduce the price premium for IS on their latest kit lenses. Let's face it, the 17-85IS is not L series quality. If it wasn't for Photoshop lens correction it would be almost unusable at 17mm IMO. MrT.

The result is that I want to go there. Let people gripe about tilted (the easiest fix of all in photo editors), differences in perceiving colors on their monitors vs. yours, etc, but they make me want to go there. Please consider this a very high compliment. Allen

I'm a little speechless: so far nobody has made such nice complements. You keep me going and inspire me to achieve even higher goals! Thanks again. If any of you want to come to Portugal, I'll be happy to get you settled and show you around. It will be a time you'll never forget or regret. (Should it be OR or NOR?). -- Focus

'either here OR there' Means the object IS at one location or the other. Sorry for my crude explanation. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/nor mike |
