Almost certainly selling my 100mm f2 if that helps. I'd be buying radio poppers in a flash (sorry) if they would get a move on and release EU versions.

While I've made a few purchases so far this year, I am not looking to buy any brand new EOS gear in the coming months.
However, I intend to buy a 1DsMkII soon.


+1, except that I'm getting a 1dm3 instead of 1dsm2

I'd like a 24L Mk 2, but as its UK price has just doubled I doubt I will be buying anything for the foreseeable future.

Maybe an Acratech GP if I can afford....not easy @ 15

Assuming the rumours are accurate and the 1DMkIV is released later this year, and assuming the the price point is more or less where the 1DMkIII is now, I'm going to get two of them.

Also, I need a new 600/4 as I dropped my current one but hopefully the insurance will cover that one.

I've added a few items this year so far.

5d2
35L
135L

Will likely add the 24-70L and possibly an 85 1.8 before the end of 2009.

Some used Mamiya stuff, adapters as well.

EDIT: just snagged a Mamiya Sekor-C 80mm f1/.9 prime for M645 today, on Craigslist. Probably 8 out of 10.

$125, plus the gas and time to drive there and back.

I've already shuffle my line up in January:
24-105L to replace 17-85
upgrade the 50mm to the 50 1.4
Monday I will receive my Pelican case to store my stuff
I am still attracted to the 85L II but can not justify it...so I guess only if I win lottery (which I do not play) :-)

5D the last week of 08...if that counts at all.

In 09...
finishing the move to FF ...
16-35 II
15 fisheye
5D2
CP-E4

I've resisted the urge to get a super fast 8Gb card for the 5D2 (so far)

I bought a LOT last year so this year the total spent may be near the same, but the count of stuff will be a lot less. I don't plan to buy anything else this year, but...

On the wish list for 'sometime' is 85 1.2 (probably the next purchase), 135 F2. For no reason other than I'd like them and they're not too pricey, the 100 2.8 macro and 300F4. Don't have a need at all for anything longer, but someday when I have more money than brains I'm sure I'll pickup something.

Preacherman...

Congrats on your 300 and wft.. both pretty sweet.
If it were me; I would move the 35 and 85 to the top of the list, although if you keep your current trend, you will end up w/ a 2xtc and a fish...

For me, I bought a 5D2
on the list would be a 45 tilt shift and maybe a 16-35.. but then again, I am not much of a zoom guy...so prob just the ts

very good thread Jarvis...
