Canon Holy Trinity?

[panzerpunk]

Do we have one? If Nikkor has one, why not EF?

[user111]

EF 400/2.8 IS USM L
EF 200/1.8 USM L
EF 70-200/2.8 IS USM L

Since you are worrying about this, I assume your camera equipment happens to be in a glass showcase which is humidity and temperature controlled 99.9% of the time?

Crazy. Holy? Go to pray more often, you'd make anything and everything "holy".

Don't associate a religion to consumer goods, thank you.

OMG.....I can't believe you guys forgot the 85mmf1.2L!!!

It's sure expensive to be a truly Canon pro ....
may add .... 50mm f1.0L or f1.2L & 85mm F1.2L

Many ppl have their own version of what a so called "Holy Trinity" lineup should look like. Some are rich and can dream of:

EF 300mm/400mm f2.8L IS USM
EF 500mm f4L IS USM
EF 600mm f4L IS USM

(plus truck and porter to help carry around)


My own dream "Holy Trinity":

EF 35mm f1.4L
EF 85mm f1.2L Mk II
EF 135mm f2L

My "Realistic" Holy Trinity:

EF 35mm f2
EF 50mm f1.8 Mk II
EF 85mm f1.8

Nikkor Trinity, Canon Trinity.

Are u juz equipment wanking over the fact that Canon has Ls, Nikkor has Trinities, Konica-Minolta has Gs or are u taking photos?

It makes me wonder though, does the lack of 'holy trinity lens' is going to affect ur pictures severely that ur pictures are going to be horrible? Or the presence of 'holy trinity lens' is going to turn ur photos into Henri Cartier Bresson quality?

[huggable]

Don't think Nikon nor Canon have any Holy Trinity.

The only Holy Trinity is the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
