Great lens, but if you need the extra stop of speed (and have the arms to carry it), spring a couple hundred extra for an EX+ rated f/2.8 used model from www.keh.com

 

[funkymatt]

Don't do it.

Buy me a half gallon of Jim Beam.

Much better.

I'm about at the limit I'm gonna spend for a lens. Actually, I'm well over it, but that's what an impluse buy is all about.

You can justify it if:

It's a toy, and you can easily afford it.
You make money from it (i.e. it's your job).
It's a hobby that you're seriously into.

 

[Number1]

Are your pictures going to turn out that much better compared to what you would get with a cheaper lense?

Are you a profesional?

What do you do with your pictures? Blow them up to gigantic sizes?


But I mean, If its worth it to you and you can afford it, why not?

It's all about if you can afford it. If you could afford to have $1000 stolen from you right now and tomorrow you'd meet all of your current commitments, then go for it.

 

[IHateMyJob2004]

People that spend $1K on crap like this that are above the age of 25 are idiots. Those under are young and stupid.

<== has $2K mountain bike and had an HDTV 6 years ago. You are wasting your money. learn from my mistakes.

 

[Penth]

If you want it and can afford it then buy it. Some people will say you're stupid, but you know if you'll like it and use it or not.

I was just talking to my cousin yesterday about my monitor and speakers and how people told me I was foolish to spend as much as I did on them, but i haven't regretted either for a second.

 

[TallBill]

Wrong forum

Btw, buy it.
