I tried this lens for a few days, and I must say this might be the best zoom lens out there. No doubt the best lens I have ever used but also the heaviest and priciest. That's why I will keep my 70-200/4L IS even if the image quality of the 70-200/2.8L IS II is a bit better.

I moved up from a Canon 20D, I won't look back. The 5D produces an awesome bokeh with L lenses, especially L primes really shine on this camera. Dust can be a headache, I wished it had more AF points.

Pros:
|
best walk around lens for the 5d, it really shines between 35 and 70mm, L colors & contrast, IS is a life saver
|
|
Cons:
|
some CA, waiting for a 24-70/2,8 IS with hopefully better sharpness & resolution
|
|
most of the shoots were taken with 1/20 until 1/40
