About the Canon 24-105 F4L... I own the 24-70 but thought I'd prefer the weight and range of the 24-105. Did a two-week swap with a fellow photog to try it out. Found that the distortion (both close in and wide) was loads worse than what I was used to from the 24-70 (which only has some distortion zoomed out wide). Also, in the end I decided I preferred the wider aperture to the IS. So no final swap. Now I'm thinking I'll end up with the 17-40 F4L and the 100 F2.8 IS Macro. And possibly the 50mm F1.8II because it's dead cheap, light and nice to have indoors in poor light.

I paid for it and used it for a while but had serious problems with the software leaving out metadata for about 2 in 10 downloads. In the end I was so pissed off I stopped using it and went back to ftp. Oh, and I downloaded the iStock add-on for iPhoto which works better with iStock than Prostockmaster (PSM seriously screws up disambiguation).

Ach. This is just pants. Really, how difficult can it be to keep the credits on a fairly similar level? The difference between � and � for me is approx 33 cents, which adds up quite quickly...

Doing fairly well here too. IS, on the other hand...

Jeez. Give them a bit more time. If it wasn't for Lucky Oliver I think we'd never see this discussion about Yay this early. And if we actually want them to succeed stopping uploads is probably the dumbest thing to do...
