Dayummm! The 70-300 L jumped to $1599 on B&H and it was $1399 just last month. I guess I know what I'm NOT getting for my birthday.

I would not buy anything at these current inflated prices. they would simply not hold. there will be new round of rebates, and drop in prices. You just have to buy at the right time. I paid 1850 for my 70-200 2.8 IS II, 1250 fro my 70-300L, 1300 for my 24 1.4L II, 1800 for my 24 tseII, 1350 for my 16-35II, all brand new, all from b&h or adorama over the last 2-3 years. My Flickr
