- You are one of the few people who actually bought good lens with
- a fancy body. Most people seems to buy a fancy body so they talk about
- all the creature features and slap on the cheapest zoom they can find.
- On rare occasion, they may actually find time to take a few pictures :)
- Now what I want to know is, is it really a 24-35L or is it a 20-35L or
- are there actually 2 different lens? I know Canon used to make a
- 24-35L for the FD mount and I have seen ads for a 20-35L for FD and EF
- mount, but I don't think the FD 20-35L nor the EF 24-35L actually exist.
- Reason I ask is I was thinking about getting the FD 20-35L when I saw
- the ad, but the only wide L zooms I've seen in real life are 24-35, since
- I already have the 24L, I can't justify spending $1000 on a lens unless
- it goes down to 20mm.
