Well, for one thing, because I already have an EF 85mm f/1.8 and an EF 100mm f/2.8<span style="color: red;"]L Macro IS USM. []


But,70-200 f/2.8 II vs. 70-200 f4 IS plus $1300 to spend on something else (I'm thinking the EF 35mm f/1.4L) is a very, very relevant debate...

Which is the way I'm leaning right now, since I don't have any of the 70-200 zooms, and I'd rather make the best choice, the first time.
