EF 70-300 IS USM or EF 70-200 f/4L USM or ...?

It is interesting to see how many people have been through a few lenses and end up with the 70-200 IS USM L lens in either the f/4 or 2.8. I can see where this can become an expensive hobby I can see myself justifying the $1200 lens in my head when I started the search thinking $500-$600.

I think these are the first symptoms of L-disease. Good luck mate

Your idea sounds good though. Just see what you like and dislike about the 80-200 and go from there. Good luck!
