Got mine today, this was shot through the shop window.....I'm looking forward to getting out with it.......it's by far the sharpest and fastest focusing lens I have...

And the sign in the window is very appropriate.......

Quick question for the owners of this lens...is there any "play" between the lens and the camera when mounted? I can slight twist the lens left and right. If I had to guess, I'd say about a millimeter of play.

Yep, I gotta say I noticed the same.........don't know if it's a problem, or a potential future problem. Will be interested to hear from others....

Don't worry about it...every single 70-200 does this... at least on the 5d mark ii...been like this since the first day I bought it and have read countless people experiencing the same thing...

I just checked mine and there isn't any play at all. It is attached to my 5D Mark II.
