This thing better have "OS" in it (though I don't see any "OS" designation in the name).

OS would be cool but hopefully if something new comes it, it drops the price on the current 70-200 and whats a 4/3 camera system What if you could get the new OS version for the same price as Canon's non-IS version?

They dropped the ball on most potential L contenders by leaving off either HSM or OS or, more often than not, both. Did you lose Digital Photo Professional (DPP)? Get it here

I wouldn't throw the baby out with the bath water. They've still got some EXcellent glass (e.g., 1020EX, 1850EX, 2470EX, 150EX Macro, 70200EX, Bigma, 100300EX, 120300EX, 300EX, 500EX, 800EX, SigMonster, to name a few). But they need to add HSM and OS to more lenses, I'll agree with that.

Might pick one up to compliment the 120-300 I am getting fStopJojo wrote: Ahhh, senior member. Kudos to me. ![]() Result & well earned If in doubt, I shut up...

The Sigmonster is not exactly a lens with a lot of competition, but I'd love to get my hands on one some day Just returned after many years hiatus from this forum. I was a bit of a prat before, if I ever offended you, I'm sorry
