Hi Pierre

If I didn't have the 100-400 IS and 200/2.8 I would most probably
get the 70-200/4L. With 1.4x (as suggested by someone) it should
work pretty well, as well.

Actually the EF 28-135 IS USM is 129mm at oo (according to photodo) and
when you focus closer it gets even shorter. I think I was once comparing
it with my 100/2 and noticed that when focused at 1-2 meters the 28-135
was actually shorter than my 100mm prime.

And also: the 70-200/4L is one stop faster in the long end (but still
not too heavy).
