The "New Gear/Willy Waving" thread

I've just purchased the 24-70 2.8L lens and should be here tomorrow,I'm also looking for the 70-200 2.8,I've heard really good things about the F4 version.
Have you had a 70-200 before ?

No, I’ve got a 24-105 and a 16-35 so this is a longer lens for me. My wife just picked up the canon 100-400l series one which is a nice lens too
 
Funny you should say that,my friend only said this to me last night :)

Once i have these 2 lens i am done.

Holy Trinity zooms and I’m done.
Holy trinity primes and I’m done.
Once I fill this bag I’m done.
Once I fill this larger bag I’m done
Once I fill this case I’m done.
Once I fill this larger case I’m done.
Once I fill both of these cases I’m done.

It never ends!

Canon L range,more so the 70-200

I've never own any Canon 70-200. I did rent the 70-200L/2.8 IS once for a wedding (not sure which mk1 or 2), so I can't really comment apart from what the internet says.

In terms of the 24-70, I've always thought the 2.8 is the better lens, all day long.
 
Got the Sony FE 85/1.8 arrived last week, now I have my favourite 3 focal lengths covered on 3 systems….crazy, can shoot a wedding on any one of these! Now this isn't the definitive of their size comparison as I can make the Sony and Fuji slightly smaller by removing the grips, I could have got the Canon 35/2.0 or the smaller Canon 50/1.4. Similarly the Sony I could have got the Sigma 85/1.4 Art E-Mount, and the resulting aperture/bokeh effect on the Fuji doesn't compare to FF, but this is what I chose to have. The Canon is the largest and heaviest as you expect but it is the lenses that is the biggest weight gain/lost.
