It looks like the 22-2500 range is canons new sweet spot (for them, that is) Nikon D850 l Nikon 28 1.4E l Nikon 50 1.8 g l Nikon 24-120 F4 l Tamron 100-400 l

skycolt Senior Member 411 posts Joined Apr 2012 More info | Jun 25, 2012 12:33 | #13 push pull is OK for me. But I really hope it's weather-sealed. 200-400 is too pricy. There are gaps from the high end and possible improvements from the current model. I'll wait and see 1D IV | converted 1000D | ever changing lenses

ScottM Goldmember More info | Jun 25, 2012 13:00 | #14 KenjiS wrote in post #14629321 It has to be coming... The 100-400 IS is one of the oldest IS-equipped lenses in the lineup, in fact i think it is actually THE oldest (only the 300mm f/4 is close..) and optically? its not the best lens around (its OK but it definitely shows its age) Its the one lens that could benefit most from an improved IS system... The Sigma 50-500 OS while not QUITE as sharp (Very very close) in my opinion is a better lens before the 4-stop OS gives a MUCH better keeper rate over the 100-400's antiquated system... I agree the 100-400L could really benefit from an upgrade, but the rumors have been out there way too long for me to get excited. If Canon finally does announce something, I will be very interested in upgrading if the price is not outrageous.

It's probably my 2nd most used lens, and it takes much better photos than a rumor.  I agree.
