who has absolutely no desire, whatsoever, to purchase the 70-200L is usm. EVER!
I think it is over rated and had some amazing marketing... I do not want one because it is a BEAST and I am LAZY!

That was until today...

I'm wondering since it says "special edition" on the box, that this might be very hard to come by? (bet you could sell on here for about the same price as a real 70-200!)

Yeah...I'll take one. PM"d. First in line. What is the date code? Have you had a filter on it since day one? Is there a little dust? Is it minty? Can I see a 100% crop?
