Will you be selling yours? I'll be selling mine most likely. I don't remember last time when it was on my camera, a year, two years ago? Same as 50 1.8

I'm not sure yet whether to try to sell it here, on ebay or TP yet

I keep thinking about selling it and probably will when I get around to it. But then the little voice in my head starts saying "it's such a light little gem, why not keep it"

No more photography related purchases anymore this month. I blew my budget for this month on this badboy

I keep thinking about buying one of those. My ballhead has one built-in, but once the camera's mounted I can't see it.

Is the 135L really as good as the reviews?

I've been trying to buy one, but the second hand prices are too strong. I might have to buy new.

BubbleDouble

I would say so, yes, which is probably why it holds it's value in the second hand market.

i've been having the same dilemma about my 85mm. I think though I'm leaning towards keeping it..I don't need to sell it and I have used it before for portraits and it would be a pain to have to buy it again if i needed it. When I move to FF, I probably will sell it though and used the money to put towards the 135L.

I want to buy a 17-40L at the moment, looking on ebay but anyone know of any good used deals going on this lens?

Try TP classifieds, I think I saw a one or two over there recently.

technoholic

im not a member there, do you need to have been a member for a while before using classifieds? Also i thought they were mainly US based?

edit: they aren't US based i was confused but do seem to need 25 posts and member for over 60 days

My tripod and head have 3 levels built in, but they are all pretty useless. 2 are on legs and as we know legs are often not straight and one on the 3 way head, but same as you, when camera is mounted I can't see it
