why bother on zoom lenses or anything less than a 300 f2.8?


Answer is very simple, you need to try 70-200mm F2.8L IS II to understand how good this lens is. This lens (without tc) no penny worse in IQ than 300/F2.8L IS, and yes I own both lenses. Practical use? Any sports events, I can\'t bring my huge and very noticeable 300/F2.8L IS but I could bring my 70-200 F2.8L IS II and 1.4tc in my pocket. Lighter travel bag for vacation is another good example. For anything longer I am using my 500L.
