Let's be honest, if someone captures a humming bird in flight with this lens' auto-focus, they deserve a friggin' trophy!

Someone convince me to get this lens rather then save another £200 to get the 80-200 f/2.8L :p

There's one for sale where I live in perfect conditions plus a UV filter and a Canon hood, is 350€ (~450$) too much for it?

I paid $280cdn for my copy. 450 seems a bit high to me.

Got to use this lens today. It started off being a sunny day and then the clouds rolled in much to my dismay, still a good outing with the 100-300L.

the sales volume is too small to gauge the price. that said, probably 350-400 is a fair price

Picked up a solid one with a small scratch on the corner of the front element for 40 bucks. picture quality unaffected. I'm pretty happy...
