Thanks. Same to you. Not sure how long it will take Adobe to get profiles into Lightroom. I have bought and sold a lot of lenses over the years, but only preordered this one and the RF 100L macro.Rec'd my RF14-35 today, Aug 28. I placed my pre-order on Jun 29 with B&H.

Canon has website issues. With the 100-500, it would sometimes show as in stock on the product page, but once added to a cart it would show as backordered.I ordered from B&H on 8/4 and check status daily on Canons website. Today it finally showed as in stock. So what does idiot me do? I cancelled my B&H order and ordered directly from Canon. Only to get an email 5 min later saying its back ordered. I've already sold my EF 16-35mm f/4 and adapter as it was the last EF lens I was hanging onto. I'm screwed, I know I am. Lost my preorder place in line. Heading to Glacier National Park on 9/26 and I dont know what I'm going to do.
We've all been there with Canon's on line store, twmooney. Lesson learned??? Just because Canon shows it as being in stock, doesn't make it so. When ordering any product direct from their store, it pays to wait until merchandise actually received before cancelling anything elsewhere. Hope you get your dilemma worked out. As neuroanatomist mentioned, you might consider renting something for your trip.I ordered from B&H on 8/4 and check status daily on Canons website. Today it finally showed as in stock.

I have the 15-35, great lens and you will love it. I also got the 14-35 for then size, but also the extra 1mm on the wide end. If you get the 100-500, you will love that one too. Don't miss my 100-400 at all...I sold my EF 16-35 an adapter just to get this for this big trip, lol. I bit the bullet. I ordered the 14-35 f4 earlier then just happened to check stock for 15-35 2.8, Then I called and they confirmed in stock. So I ordered the 15-35 2.8 and carepak for 5 yrs. I hope I dont regret the weight. I use it for landscape and dont need anything below f/4 typically. So I hope I can dual purpose this 15-35 for astro. I really wanted the f/4 ALL bc of the weight savings. We do a lot of portrait work and my RF 85mm 1.2 rarely leaves my R. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping I can pick up the RF 100-500 for this trip and I'll be happy.
After a week with the 14-35 it is already a love/hate relationship. The vignetting in the corners at 14mm is more than I expected. The weight of this lens in the pocket is a dream. I would love to hear a little more when you have done a photo walk with both the 15 and the 14 and what you like/dislike about both.I have the 15-35, great lens and you will love it.

So far so good, but I’ve not given it a good work out yet.After a week with the 14-35 it is already a love/hate relationship. The vignetting in the corners at 14mm is more than I expected.

Today was the third 4 hour plus walk this week. I do NOT miss carrying the EF 16-35 on those walks.
