re kit

Have you got a UV filter on it Jason? they seem to recomend that over on POTN,this one I got has had UV filter on it all the time.its three years old,but no dust issues.


Apparently,there is a U tube vid on taking that front lens off and cleanig it,many do it,Yes,I know you should'nt have to do something like that when you pay that much for a lens,Just one of those things I guess.

If your copy is a bad 'dust suker' you could sell it,Jason and get the 24-70 f 2.8

I was going to get that lens,but so many reports of soft copies,I got the 17-55,also on the crop I wanted lower focal length ranges.

yes,the images are very good,some how I would rather put up with dust,weight other issues in a lens,if it means I get the image I want.
