Canon 70-200mm F4 L - just tried it.. big mistake

Order placed with Kerso:

Canon 70-200mm F4 L
Canon 1.4x TC
Hoya 67mm filter

£636.99 all-in, so around £130 cheaper than they were offering me on the high-street. Plus I can get £35 cash-back on the 1.4x TC. So if it arrives ok i'll be pretty chuffed :D

did you pay him through paypal or direct?

do you know when it will be arriving?
 
What's this cashback you talk of? Is it connected with buying a new camera, or can anyone get it?

Currently looking at telephotos and deciding whether the 70-200 F4 L is worth the extra money on top of the 70-300 USM IS (and whether I can afford it) :)
 
Well the kit all arrived this morning, as promised. All seems to be working perfectly :)
Still in the office today, but i'll be off to Cornwall tomorrow to give it good work out. Can't wait!

I just love how fast and swish the internal USM focusing is. :D
 
nice one, careful not to catch `L` fever though :p


i`m pondering getting a new telephoto, the 70-300 sigma apo I have already is a good lens for the price, but some things have started to annoy me about it
I origionally looked at the 70-200 f4L but I keep thinking, "ahh for only another £250 or so i could get the 2.8L" , then of course once I look at the 2.8L i start thinking , well if i`m spending near £800 I might as well pay an extra £250 and get the IS right?... heh

anyone else have this mentality?

I`m seriously going to have to cut my Egg card in half before I owe another 2k on it :( lol
 
finally bitten the bullet and order the canon 17-40L from kerso (ian)

he has said it will be here by 1pm friday:) which is nice as i have the weekend off to test it

cant wait

will update thread on friday
 
Ok, excuse the rubbish subjects, but heck these were the first things outside the back door :D
