I'm holding out for the 800/4L IS. It'll be a lot like the 1200/5.6L, but better for handheld shooting.

Will it come with a built-in bipod?

I wouldn't hold your breath on that one. Not in this economy.

Canon needs something in their lineup to compete with the Nikon 200-400 F4 VR. It's supposed to be an awesome lens that costs like $6k.

I don't think Canon will release it in time. I mean they better post news of such lenses since the winter olympics are about to start.

I voted 'maybe', but I'm hoping they don't update anything. Every time they introduce a new lens, their repair department seems to stop supporting the perfectly usable older version of the lens that I already own.

I'd settle for a revamped EF 400mm f/2.8L I.S. II that weighs less than 10 lbs.

What's wrong with you people? EF 10-800mm f0.95 IS weighing in at slightly less than a pack of gum.
