Investing into Canon L series lenses when you own a Rebel body?
I would rather buy good glass now, then when I have the money upgrade to a better body. Buying good body now, and having to be stuck with my kit lenses doesn't seem like a route that makes sense.Anyway, what are your feelings on this?

Very easily. Resell, making your own prints, etc.

Nope. Only pros will detect any difference in results from an L lens versus sub-L (and maybe not then).Scotty wrote:

There are tens of thousands of non-pros that can tell the difference in L lenses and consumer ones. I'm one of them.
Use an 85L and a regular 85 f/1.8 and you'll see the difference every time.
Or a 300 f/2.8 IS II versus a 70-300 entry level lens.
