Hello from Kenya
I'm currently at the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. Also known as “The Mara”. I'm obviously having a great time and will be here in Kenya for another 9 days or so.
70-300 f/4-5.6L IS
I have one of these lenses with me here in Kenya on Safari. I am working on a review of the lens, it will be a user review like the others.
If I could give you a bit of a hint of what I think about it, I've taken less than 10 frames with the 70-200 f/2.8L IS II and a few hundred with the new 70-300L. It's not for everything, but it's been great for a lot of things.
Rumors!
Not much in the way of rumors coming in, a few bits of email in regards to lenses.
One mentions a new focal length for a new tilt shift lens, what that is wasn't known.
The other mentioned no replacement of the 50 f/1.4 anytime soon. The lens is a big money maker and hits a great price point for most people.
No camera rumors to speak of. Expect things to start picking up in January.
