It felt very strange taking a soapy sponge to my new 24-105mm F4 and 70-200mm F4 lenses this morning! These turned up yesterday from canonmugs.com, after a short wait for stock to arrive.

After washing them, I tried the 24-105mm for a cup of coffee with lunch.

Although the plastic taste might wear off in time, I'm probably going to demote the 24-105mm to a pen holder. The coffee didn't taste good at all.

The 70-200mm has a stainless steel or aluminum inside, so it probably fine to drink from. I'll find out next week when I take it to be filled up at Starbucks. Doh! I hate to see people walking around with Starbucks cups in the street, pretending to be the cast of Friends!

Luckily, I'll just look like I'm holding my stylish Canon 70-200mm F4 Lens very carefully! :-)
