That lens was tempting too, but for the extra premium, the constant aperture was worth it.
I can't wait to put it through it's paces... the AF motor is LOUD though.

^That is NEARLY epic... but what's that "moon" to the top-right??
What's really cool about it is that I've never ever seen a hummingbird pic where the point wasn't to either show off the colors of the bird, or the photog's ability to freeze the wings.

I kinda thought so, but then it sorta looks like a reflection on glass. Might have worked if it was a little more in-focus, although personally I think it would be better not there at all (too distracting).
