Abel, if you go by Arlington Camera, ask for Gil. Or ask for Jim or Bill, they are the owners, and definately drop off some cards and let them know about TPF- I'm sure they are aware anyway. Great place, you will have fun. Mention my name, like I said , it is a home away from home.

So, not being a Canon shooter, can I ask how much you just spent? ...ballpark is good enough.

It feels great and horrible all at the same time doesn't it?

I did the same thing a few months ago... picked up a 70-200 IS, 24-70, 17-40, and 15 fish at the same time... I had sticker shock from that order for weeks, but I LOVE these lenses so it was all worth it.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one that feels that way. I almost felt as if I owed it to them. They have been so patient with me everytime I have gone in there to kick tires so to speak.
