All Canon bodies and L lenses, has inspired mr to see what I cando now
, so more shooting with more buying....
They are your paintbrushes.... paint on.
Thing about 'Glass (<<<--- like that? it makes me sound so badass!) is that its a sound investment, almost an heirloom... Yeah we can get the markii versions and I'm sure future mark iii editions of lens that will make even just holding your camera obsolete with their anti gravity stabilization and mind controlled focus. But your current lens still works and still takes the great images that made you fall in luv with it... Especially if you are an artist. As a business, you can earn to make up the cost of the mark V anti gravity 1-10,000 mm L macro that fits in your shirt pocket. At that point, canon ditched fluorite and UD elements in favor of using singularities to bend the light.... And the rumors of that factory just suddenly disappearing into a black hole are exactly that: rumors... jsut don't go near that location... ;D
I luv looking into my bag and thinking of the possibilities... what can you do today....
Its also a great time to invest because besides N. Korea threatening to bomb the US, Russia getting trigger happy, the stories of the dollar imploding, Cyprus becoming insolvent, europe hating germans, germans hating any euro dollar besides their own, (INHALE) Canon is offering great rebates on now all of their lenes.. including the new 24-70 mm. Yeah even with the rebate they still feel overpriced... but they are something optically. Plus there's a slew of Mark ii version of key lenses... the holy trinity of 16-35mm, 24-70mm, 70-200. Possible 100-400mm update. Organ-selling 200-400mm.
Its also a bit of a perfect storm where you have this boom in photo education.. not just in how to shoot but how to make money in it. I think its a reflection of how people are realizing that more and more they are going to have to rely on a local economy to make money and build a business.. Dunno about you but my industry has been gutted by outsourcing, globalization .. all euphemisms for how corporate america is being a DICK toward their workers. With no boarders or country to be loyal to and this false definition of personhood, the corps just take take take ... The tools to make a living and build a life... a steady job, a career, an affordable education.... Gone. Good thing Canon makes some great tools for folks to make their living!!!!
ooook..that was a DETOUR down debbi downer lane!!!
like I said, the lenses are your paintbrushes... paint away!
