EORI Senior Member More info | Aug 25, 2010 23:32 | #2 This lens is intriguing indeed. Neither of my current long zooms are vacation-friendly (70-200/2.8IS; 100-400)' and the DO version too expensive and wanting.

HyperYagami Goldmember 2,405 posts Joined Nov 2007 Location: Poughkeepsie, NY, USA More info | Well the current 70-300mm can look a little bit soft at times, so if they can improve that and have a newer 4-stop IS and keep it maybe at $600 range then it will be something good.
