original vs II series lenses

[Thom Deevers]

I may disagree with neuro on the quality of the 70-200 I - mine was excellent but with the upgrade of the II I have found it even better. Still my most used lens. I have just purchased the 24-70 2.8 II and am wow'ed!

What I find interesting is that not one of my customers notice the differences between the two - so if you have the cash and the desire go II but really, the quality is very good no matter which way you go. All depends on the end product, the customer, the cash flow, and your desire!

Happy clicking.

"Worst of the five 70-200 zooms" is relative, I was in no way suggesting the original 70-200/2.8 IS is a bad lens. The worst golfer on the PGA Tour is, by any objective standard, a far better golfer than me.
