    Lowepro Flipside 400AW help please

    Hi all, I have recently bought a Flipside 400AW secondhand, it's in great condition but smells of smoke.

    How much RAM do you have?

    16GB in my W7 machine, wasn't blown away with RAW performance in Lightroom so I put an SSD in and it flies!

    What would you replace a 24-70 2.8L with?

    EFS 17-55 2.8 is fantastic but a little pricey, overall it's my favourite lens. I also have an efs 18-200 which is brilliant for travel & bright light stuff. A few people have slated it but i find it is frequently sharper than my 24-105L! (Yes, both have been micro adjusted......) all down to...

    Canon 70-200mm IS f2.8L

    Mark 1 or 2 70-200? Also which TC? I can't give any advice but would also be interested in people's thoughts as I may go this route as well when I am rather more flush! Edit: oops, a little slow!
