Thanks for posting the pics, Gregg. Very impressive.


I got tired of waiting for Amazon and ordered from B&H. It shipped today. All doubts dissappeared after I looking at Bryan's data. (The following comparisons expecially impressed me: new lens at f/2.8 compared to old lens at f/8, new lens at 200mm compared to the 200mm f/2.8 prime, 70-200 with extenders compared to the 100-400. I don't say the 70-200 is better in each of these cases, but it is a lot closer than I expected.)


I'll say it again: I'm not anxious.

hi Jon. I had it pre ordered on Amazon, too, and nothing. So when Bryan put up the link to B&H and Adorama, I dropped Amazon, immediately ordered from B&H on Wed night, and got it Fri morn first thing. This lens is fantastic, and like I said, will stay on one of my 2 cameras pretty much all the time!! I have a double photo shoot this Sunday for toddlers, so we will put in action and see. But I don't expect any disappointment!!
