Doesn't Canon already have a 70-200mm IS already; both in f/2.8 and f/4.0?

its not.
its still vapourware, I think I will pass on the mk2 the mk3 looks a much better option as it will cure all the problems that the Mk2 has

I dunno, Canon's Mk3's will have AF issues so you may be better off sticking with the Mk2 until they get the AF issues sorted out... Chances are they'll redesign the AF mechanism in the lens for the Mk4 though they'll never formally admit fault with the Mk3.

Possibly but I bet by the time they bring out a blue dot version things will be fine. Great thing about those will be that so many users will have no confidence in them that they will be really cheap.


Mind you what do I know , I'm a ludite thats using a drainpipe

I would totally buy the mark II version if Canon change the color to black or gun metal gray. (Not a big fan of the white lenses)

My dealer just contacted me with privy information. The 70-200 2.8 IS II is being released as we speak and offers some very cool features. Along with an updated 8 stop IS system and even sharper glass, it will come with color changeable casings. So, he said, if you don't want to stick out with a beige lens, you can simply put on a black or neon pink casing on and go as stealthy as you'd like. It will only cost $2300. Chump change.

I ordered one from him. He said he'd overnight it to me. Maybe I'll be the first one to post that I own the Mark II.

Me too. I asked for the lens to come with the hot pink as well as a bright green for when I'm in forested environments. Its amazing what Canon is doing these days. He said they are working on developing a "Predator" body and lens that will "disappear" when a certain button is pushed. Hello sports arenas!
