UPDATE
The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being. I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure. ------------------------------------------------------------

+1. Dusted it off and sold it quite a while ago
The MkII is still seeing lots of use however, and still has its original role as the wide/standard focal length body when I carry two bodies. Nowadays the MkII gets paired mostly with a wide angle prime lens.

I've quickly checked my camera bag, and it seems there's a spot just big enough to fit YOUR 70-200mm!

That's weird. I use mine all the time, it's a great body cap.
Things may change when I'll get a fast 35mm. Still waiting for that 35/1.2L

I sell all of the things I don't use...
The 1.4 extender has been getting a good deal of use lately, but I suppose that would be the candidate. Maybe my gold umbrella...
Oh... my daughter's sl1 which I use as my backup... and the 40mm f/2.8 that is attached... fun lens, but I don't use it at all.

I'm really happy I managed to constrain myself and didn't buy it. I guess it helped that I had a 40 mm Voightlander. For some reason I was never really happy with that focal length anyway. Perhaps because it is the closest approximation to normal human vision which renders it a bit boring.

I bought one for my daughter... I really like the lens in theory, but I never personally use it.

I think that human vision is closer to 10mm really, a lot wider than 40mm.
If not, then maybe I'm not human

Around 80mm, what I see in the viewfinder is the same size as what I see in my other eye... but in regards to my angle... I almost have 180 degrees of coverage... so I think that makes me more of a herbivore than a carnivore...

Yes, I'm talking about FF equivalent focal length. It is close to 180 degrees.
I don't find it boring at all

You may be confusing angle of view wit perspective. I hope your eyes don't have the same perspective as a wide angle lens...
