Took these with my S90 on Monday. I was pretty far back, and was decently happy with my pics. I would have went into the mosh and tried to get closer if I didn't have fresh stitches on my right arm. I'm sure I the S90 could have given me really awesome pics!

I am a Canon user as well.
135/2L is one of the sharpest lenses I had. Amazing Lens.
Also liked my 17-40/4L and 70-200/4L IS.

Canon user here too. My sharpest lenses in no particular order are: 100mm f2, 180 f3.5L Macro, and my 70-200 f4L. Would love to upgarde my 70-200 to the 2.8 but I'm saving my pennies for a EOs 1D MkIII

Canon here too. My sharpest lens to date is 50mm 1.8. I also own and love both my tamron 17-50 and Canon 70-200 f4 (my favourite). as sportster44 above, I really want to upgrade to f2.8 as well, but saving for a new camera and possible 24-105

Earlier this year i got my hands on a Powershot SX20 IS and I couldn't be happier with it.
 
All these were taken with:

But honestly, I've owned a few SLR canons in the past, and nothing has let me down. The SX20 IS will be in my possession for a long time; it's seriously an amazing camera.

I've tentatively ordered a 5D Mark II.  I love my 1D Mark III, but I recently realized I pretty much stopped taking photos for personal enjoyment because it's so large and heavy

  Doesn't seem like 500g and a couple inches of height would make much difference, but I feel like I'm tied to a boat achor when I'm using it for non-paid work.
 
Now I have to decide whether to wait for the store to get in the 24-105 kits, and use the lens or possibly re-sell it for a small profit to put towards the body.  I've never owned a "do everything" lens, and I'm not sure how well I'd get along with an f/4 zoom, especially when I could pick up a used 135/2 for not much more.

The 200 f/1.8L is beautiful if you ever get a chance, however it's long discontinued and Canon seem unable to even ship the replacement f/2L at all here in Australia (pro friend has my 200 1.8 until Canon ship his 200 2, almost up to two years...)
 
The 85 1.2L is also wonderful, I use the old FD mount version on my EP-1 and got many of my best shots with that combination over my Canon DSLR's.

I decided I might as well get the 24-105 kit since I can easily re-sell the lens for more than it costs, and it gives me an opportunity to try it out and see if I like it.  Only problem is it's out of stock *everywhere* in Canada.  The 5D2 body is also very hard to find.  Apparently the huge rebate (ending today) pretty much cleared out stock.  Luckily my camera store was able to grab one kit from Canon, so I should have it next week.

Just bought a EF-S 10-22 for my 40D body and a S90. Both are awesome!
 
Now I'm looking in to something with a bit more reach (also have the nifty fifty and a 85mm f1.8). But I have a hard time decide if I should go with 135L and a 1.4 TC or the 200 f2.8. Anybody got a good recommendation?

 

[Teerawit]

What would you be using the 135 or 200 for?

Mostly capturing the kids playing without disturbing them, also getting some streetlife shoots when travelling again without being in peoples faces. I had the 70-200 f4 and tended to use the longer end. I really liked the IQ, but not that is was white. So I think the 135L + tc or the 200 2.8L are my only options - the first being the more versatile but expensive option.

 

[Teerawit]

135L, IMO.

Hi, I'm trying to get a used 20d right now. How much should I offer for it. It is flawless and has 17k actuations.
Includes all the accessories, except the lens.

$250-275
