Great photos! I'm still on a tight budget/leash, so the idea of getting essentially that lens minus the IS for half the cost is *very* attractive. Right now, the longest lens I have is the 28-135 (a decent lens, but not spectacular) for my XSi. I have the 17-55, and it's great, but I'm missing the reach for outdoor events.


Is it worth getting the 70-200 f/4 non-IS sooner or the f/4 IS later (much later)?
