Pretty impressive weight loss on the part of the 400mm...

I can only imagine what the 300 will street for. $5000+? Retail shows $7000. MSRP for the 400 is $11000 . Might as well have thrown in a 200L III for $15k. Also, whats with another version of the 1.4x and 2x? http://www.marketwatch​.com …8-26?reflink=MW_news_stm​p (external link)

After the price of the 200mm f/2, 800mm f/5.6 and the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS MkII,. I'm scared of the prices indeed!
That said, man these are going to be sweet!

Man, and replacements for the 500L and 600L coming up too (external link)...

Canon, well, they are reenforcing that they take super tele's seriously... wow!

Edited to add: Wow. Look at the MTF with the extenders. :eek: 300L (external link) and 400L (external link). Unbelievable.

God they're expensive. I'm gonna have to forget about Canon and go back to the cheaper stuff (Leica).
