Just a third party tube. I have a set of three and used the smallest of them for this. The photo is about a 3/4 of the area of the original shot.

Did anyone sell their version of the 70-200 f/4 for this lens? If so..... have you ever missed it since the trade?

I plan to. I just got the f/2.8 IS II last week and have only had one outing with it, and my goodness, the weight difference! I can imagine it would be nice to keep the lighter lens for those times when I won't be going wider than f/4 and/or won't need IS, but I can't justify keeping the funds tied up like that. Better to recover some of my upgrade cost.

I can lift a bowling ball, so I can lift my 2.8, right? ;)

I don't live near any ducks, but the MKII just came via UPS an hour ago. I think a little pee came out. Shot with 5D MKII in Large JPEG, 1/40, f/2.8, and just a 1/2 stop increase in exposure via LR3.

These wide open shots are killing me! My 70-200L F4 IS died and I've been agonizing all weekend whether I should take this chance to move up to this lens... I don't normally need the 2.8 for the extra light (there are times i do...), I need it more for the shallower DOF... and after seeing some of the wide open shots.... let's just say my 2.8 should be here Thursday...

now to practice my speech to the wife.... LOL

I sold my f/4 and made the jump. I shoot mostly weddings though, so unless the ceremony was outside during the day the lens was not practical for me and I didn't use it much. I don't think I will miss it, although the new one is significatly more heavy.
