I worked 108 hours in two weeks before the holidays, so I figured I kind of deserved it. Working on a 70-200 2.8L now, hopefully will have that before February so I can get some basketball done.


That would be nice. I mostly shoot basketball with a 135L. I'm usually at 1/500, F/2, and ISO 1600.. What's the light like in your gym?

No new camera gear for Xmas, but I did buy a 1.4x TC III a few weeks before Xmas. My Xmas present was to get to use the 500L for birding while on holidays.


How was the 500L? Congratulations on the TCIII!

Well as usual it was a delight to use. I was trying to shoot waders, which are very skittish, so had the 7D + 500 + 1.4 III. Shot mostly wide open and IQ is excellent. TC III looks very good. Haven't tested it against my TC II, but the real world results are enough for me.

I should say I've had the 500L for several years now, but finding good birding spots is tough so I don't use it as often as I would like.

I don't know if it's for Christmas, but in December I bought a T2i and Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 non-VC (to replace one my wife confiscated), and a Canon S95 because the price was too good to pass up.

I've been wanting a 24mm TS-E II since I used a friend's a year ago, and the $230 rebate was impossible to resist...but then my resistance is usually low....

I'm loving it, but I'm not yet smart enough for it...practice, practice, out in the bone-numbing cold... .
(Okay, okay, my bones are easily numbed...)
