This thread hs given me a lot of fun the past year so I'm glad to finally be able to post something in return.
While in london last weekend for my wedding anniversary I got caught up in the burma protest march. There was a lot of press walking around and I noticed the white canon lenses. My wife wasn't entirely sure about my sanity when I started snapping a couple of pictures of some random strangers and only shook her head and raised her eyes to the sky when I told her it was for one of my forums
so here we go:
20D or 30D with grip with 70-200mm F2.8L and silver rebel with grip and ? lens. Looks like an IS lens to me, but they were a bit too far to have a good look at.
Found an old one, me in action. Well, in between action, at Franchise, a party given in Het Paard van Troje, in The Hague, the Netherlands. This was januari 2006.

Do you know how much his camera cost? (the first image of yours)
If it's a 500/4L IS which I think it is then I kinda know how much it costs. I have the same lens lying around somewhere but I don't dress it up like that. He was standing on my favorite spot so I figured that he was a tourist or something.
Here's one of my 3 year old son practicing his long lens technique. Really - he was trying to get a clear picture of the doorknob at the end of the hallway. I didn't lock the gimbals so he had to push the shutter button gently - something he wasn't used to doing. He actually learned to push it half way down and wait for IS to kick in, then finish the shot. Okay, so he only got one out of ten shots clean, but you should have seen me jump when he tried to show me he could hand hold it!
