Droooool......but not, not for the forseeable future. this may be the best 70-200L made so far. i can get one on my way to the gym today for $1300, and my slush fund is pretty fat right now. http://instagram.com/edraderphotography/

As one of the biggest advocates for the original 70-200 f4, how can you pass up those optics, same size, and 3-4 stops of IS ? If it wasn't for the fact that I'm lusting for the 100-400, I'd seriously be considering the upgrade myself. Buy it and give us the real world review.
