I have a couple of airshows coming up. I am definately going to take the 70-200 f4L, but was wondering if anyone has used a 200mm f2.8L in an sirshow setting? Any airshow shots from this lens?

It will work. Might be better with a 1.4X TC.
I'm moving this to "Talk about...", as you've posted no images.

Forgot to mention that this and the 70-200mm would be used with a 1.4x TC.

Thanks for moving this to the appropriate catagory. :)
