Who's getting what/wish list

My wish list right now is:

1. 300 f/2.8L II IS
2. 16-35 f/4L
3. 5Ds

Obviously I want other things but #1 and #2 I can use, maybe not #3 but I'd like to get a higher resolution camera. Just for reference I already have 2 1Dx's, 24-70 f/2.8L II, 70-200 f/2.8L II IS, 50 f/1.4, 135 f/2L, and 400 f/2.8L I IS. I also have two 600EX-RT's.

Anyone else getting anything soon? Or are you waiting for the end of the year to see if the 5D4 might be announced/other announcements?

My current list:

1. 11-24mm f/4L
4. 300mm f/2.8L IS II

I leave space because the 300/2.8 has been on my list for a while, but other options always seem to take precedence and likely will until my kids' sports activities get to the point that I'm too far away for the 70-200/2.8 II to be effective.

Encouraging them to take up archery or javelin could bump that 300mm up a space or two ;D

Here is my list for this year. I had posted this on a similar thread started by Macguyver at the beginning of the year.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
My new gear's resolution is the following:

Upgrade my EF-S 60 to the EF 100 2.8L macro - trying to sell my 60mm now, but no luck in my local area
Add the 100-400L mk II to my kit
Add a 24-105L for a general zoom for my 5D. - Done
Add another flash
Start making some spending money from my photography hobby - in the works

Enjoy shooting with everything I've collected so far :)

For the first time in a while, I am satiated. Last week I picked up the Phottix Mitros + with the odin transmitter. So far the thing has worked flawlessly, and i look forward to messing with it over the next few months (3 friends weddings). Don't have a wide angle, but honestly don't need it based on what I usually do.

when my 50 1.4 breaks sometime in the next 10 years, I will upgrade to whatever is out then.

Secondary plug for Phottix kit. For the price you are getting it at, you really can't beat the deal.

....they come up with version III and added another 20% to the price :-\

Only 20%?? I admire your optimism. ;)

;D

It seems that 300 f/2.8 II is the popular lens being on 5 wishlists
I wonder if people prefer that lens coupled with 2.x ext rather than a big white

well, there's some wishful thinking on lenses ;-)

My wish list just has one item on it: 5dsr, should be fulfilled late June, it's on preorder :)
Toying with the new Cognysis Stackshot interface, and a couple of ~27" IPS 4k displays.
