Thanks to all the people who gave me thier thoughts and links I will be looking hard, and i do understand i have to learn my tools but i carn't work a good job with a discount poduct and i dont want to be held back buy limited f/stops, and i am learning for myself, if im not working im shoting and if im not shoting im reading or thinking shoting, im aiming high in photophaghy, hell i even changed jobs just so i have more time for it(was self employed)

I promise my camera skills are better than my spelling skills...Thanks again everybody.

When it comes to equipment, I found that nobody can tell me what works for me but me. Qualitative comparison can only come from a lab. That said, you may not be able to interpret the results anyhow. Lab results are complex. My advise is don't listen to any opinions. Rent copies of top contenders, and do test sequences of subjects typical of your kind of shooting. Decide based on your own facts...Happy shooting.

Right. Contrary to some opinions, I got very good results from that (70-300mm) lens, although I did retire it in favor of a Canon 70-200mm f2.8 IS USM to get sharper (particularly at the edges) pix, lower light capability and more DOF control. Now I just need to find a cheap jackass to carry it around for me. It's a mill stone!

I'd be careful about putting my expensive and highly valued equipment into the hands of a cheap jackass; knowing how to vlaue something starts with knowing how to value yourself!
