I ran safaris utilizing a Canon EOS20D, and a clutch of what are actually “L” lenses and never “L II”, e.g. “EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM” and “EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM”. Needed to stop, however saved all my gear. Clearly, i have to ease right into a extra superior digicam physique. The Canon Mark 5D III mannequin appears alongside what I would ultimately wish to get again to, and can be one thing that appears to be one I might maintain onto as a second physique hopefully. I am curious if the primary version Canon L lenses are going to carry up, quality-wise. I used to be conversant in the bounds of the IS within the L zoom fashions once I was utilizing them. I do not thoughts upgrading manner sooner or later, however assuming that my eventual aim can be alongside the traces of what is speculated in regards to the potential launch of a Canon 5D V later this yr, do 1st version Canon L IS lenses appear cheap to work with for some time?
