Default Merry Christmas to me!

I decided to finally complete my 2.8 lineup...

It's been a long time coming, but, every time I've shot with the Canon lense I immediately notice the difference in my photos. Most people won't see the quality level as quickly as me - I understand that... And that's why I don't recommend to hobbyists that they purchase $1,500 glass...

But for me, it's worth it.
Tools for my job, and I'll just have more stuff to write off this tax season.



So, time for the photos!


The unboxing!


That whole "size doesn't matter" crap... is crap.
Bigger is better.


So, this is my current collection... most of it.
Not pictured: my light kit, discs/gels, various batteries, CF cards, my audio recording stuff, and probably a few other random pieces.


So, this was my big Christmas gift to myself this year... my Mark III was my Birthday gift to me... and my light kit was my "I just moved to LA, let's make this happen" gift to me... Needless to say, sometimes you gotta take care of number One - and invest if your future.

haha, it's also getting pretty damn heavy... I outgrew my back already - that I bought in June. I knew I should have spent the extra $60 and bought the larger one... :/
