did you end up selling that 100-400? because that will be somewhat similar to the 70-200 on a crop body. Obviously a bit of a difference, but you see my point. it's just a light compensation.

you'll be saying a lot for the first few times out with it... "opps, wrong lens"
That's true. I'm sure the focal length stuff will take a little getting used to. But, I was referring to anything else I need to look out for.

you may not switch back and forth too much from the 20D to the 5D as much, so may not be an issue.
Yeah, I think it'll be pretty obvious to me if I ever switch between the two, which won't be very often.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to using the 50mm a lot more now.
