I do not post ususally when I pick up new gear, however, in this case, OMG. I almost had a heart attack when I took it out of the packing box, then out of the Canon box, and then out of the gray "make up" box with 500 written on the side, and not from the exertion either, but from the pure excitment. WOW! My baby 300 mm f/2.8 IS is now going to be just a tad jealous. DAVID ALAN DARBY // MAC CONVERT // Raging and unapologetic L'coholic constantly Striving To Measure Up to the Quality of My Gear!

You may find, like I did, that you will still use that 300 f/2.8 quite a bit. It is easier to hand hold, lug around and takes a slightly better image both with the 1/4 and 2X TCs and without.
