24-105L and wedding samples

Thanks, Tom.

I'm sticking with a cropped sensor (50D now, 7D potentially) so will probably get the EF-S 10-22mm Canon, or 10-20mm Sigma to cover UWA.

The Canon 100mm macro was the first lens I bought. Love it.

I like fast primes too. The nifty fifty is a great value portrait lens. I'm thinking of upgrading to the 1.4, as the bokeh is awful on the 1.8.

For your info George. We looked at the 7D before deciding on the 60D. The price was around £875 for the body. I remember I shopped around and it was cheaper if I offered cash for around £850. It was a really good price but the reason why we chose the 60D is partially because the viewfinder is adjustable which is perfect for my wife and also the the cost difference.

With the savings we were able to get a flashlight, B&W filters, bag, spare batteries, memory cards and 2 lens for around £1k. For the UK I wouldnt be able to buy all this at all, so I saved at least £300-£400 quid in Hong Kong.

My wife really liked the 7D but for what it was worth she is still learning and unlike you guys not doing the full frame image editing etc.
