Hey guys..

read the first 2 pages and gave up coz there is so much info..

anyway for whats its worth, i'm not in hk however i went to HK to check out prices for lenses. I found that it wasnt any different from the net, so i bought 2 lenses and a flash on line. The 85mm f1.2 and the 70 to 200 2USM IS, and the 580 flash. I found that the delivery was fast and the service was great. What was interesting was that the prices fluctuated with the exchange rate. As i am from australia i ended up buying the lenses cheaper than what i could have gotten it whilst i was in hk (as credit cards attract a 2% foreign exchange fee).
I also use a canon 5d and have a 50mm f1.2 prime.
I do prefer prime lenses, and as i am in the market now for a wide angle i am in a dilemma as to whether i want a prime or a zoom which offers more flexibility.
One more thing.. if any one out there is interested in the 5d... hold off as i heard rumours that the mark 3 might be released in march..
