Lol, I don't know where the pats are from either. I was at the in-laws and some of the guys were talkign to me about the playoffs and steelers and blah blah blah. I said, you know what would make football much more interesting...if the teams only got paid if they won. The people were like, omfg how can you want those people to play this hard game and not make their money.

I just laughed.

I had a good Christmas.

Got another 5D MKII, 50 f/1.2L, 70-200 f/2.8L IS II, and 16-35 f/2.8L II.

Sorry Stan I already have a 24L.

Jim

I don't get it. If you have two 5D MKIIs, two 50 f/1.2Ls, two 70-200 f/2.8L IS IIs, and two 16-35 f/2.8L IIs, why don't you need two 24Ls?

Now thats funny!

I guess I'm like Robert. I didn't explain myself well enough but I'm blaming it on my typing skills.

Correction! In addition to getting another 5D MKII I got one each of the 50 f/1.2L, 70-200 f/2.8L IS II, and 16-35 f/2.8L.

I'm not going to talk about football teams because ours can't even beat PA.

My condolences. If you have a receipt go and try to trade up for a 24L

As much as I love my 24L, the 50L gets more use. I love it

My wife said "I feel bad that I'm not buying you any camera stuff for Christmas"

She said she almost jumped on that 70-200 mk2 when it was on sale...

I don't really "need" anything right now but I got a lens align and a Yosemite photo book that will keep me going for a while. I'll wait till the 100-400 mk2 comes out and then soften her up for that.

The lens align is great - really help my keeper rate with the fast primes! You will like it!

Thanks to Ebenezer Canon, neither 500II nor 600II was in my stocking this morning.

That's a bummer

. Maybe something to look forward to in 2012?

I just did the same thing. Sat on the fence for a while with that and it was a constant toss-up between it and the 24L but I finally made a choice. Merry Christmas to me

Merry Christmas indeed! Nice choice

Treated myself to a 24L TS-E II - with the rebates and special offers I could no longer resist. But after buying the 300L (F/4 IS) from Craigslist in the fall I'm definitely on Santa's naughty list for 2012.

Can't compete with Jim's boxes of goodies, so it was a 'cheap' accessory Christmas.

New large Apecase for my lenses. Thought it would be bigger! Or maybe that means I need to sell a couple lenses...

Hakuba hand strap for my 7D. Thought it would be more comfortable. I think I need to keep looking.

Third party wireless shutter release from Vello. Transmitter does not work, so back to Amazon it must go.

My wife gave me a ... year of training at a local gym, so that I become more able to carry what photo gear I already have.

I'm in a market for a Sony E 55-210 lens for her but unable to find one in shops. Looks like she's going to get beauty salon treatment and not a lens this New Year.

However I hope to procure this lens by March 8th or by her birthday in late April.

I picked up a Canon S95 for myself earlier in the week when it was the Amazon Gold Box Deal.

I grabbed a 5D mark 2, a 70-200 f/2.8 IS L II and a 50 f/1.2L....but....it had nothing to do with Christmas. It had everything to do with incredible deals.
