100m f/2.8L or no L?

^ So I take it you're not married yet, Fedgrub.

(But you have been engaged. Thirty-four times, as a matter of detail.)

haha, no I'm not married. Probably why I'm trying to collect good equipment sooner rather than later... ha

What do you guys with 1D's do regarding using tripod rings?

1DIII and 70-200L IS II owner here - I have the tripod mount set to "portrait" position before I mount the lens to the camera. After then you can free turn 360* without problem.

Definitely going to go with the L, but thinking of the 24-70 f/2.8L or 24-105mm f/4L first.

I have 100L and 24-70L, can lend you have a play in the next AP meet.

But if you already have a decent standard zoom, don't see the point to get a 24-70L over 100L

Thanks Andy. I just got the 24-105mm F4L so I will be looking at the 100L next.
