Canon 28-70mm 2.8 USM lens differences.

[king-fish]

Hey all. I'm interested in buying a Canon 28-70mm 2.8 USM lens. Did Canon ever change this lens during the production cycle? If they did do you know what year?


Many Thanks

It seems Canon did not. Usually, a "II" is added to the lens name when they do. Have a look here: http://www.canon.com/camera-museum/camera/lens/ef/standard_zoom.html and here: http://www.canon.com/camera-museum/camera/lens/ef/data/standard_zoom/ef_28~70_28l_usm.html
