Daniel,
If I could find a 300/F4 L used for twice the new price of a 75-300, I
would buy it NOW! I've never seen one used at any price though. And you know
what? I would not miss the 75-299 range of the zoom. It seems to me, I'm
always at the long end, and for that matter, it's never long enough! What
I'd like though is the ability of autofocus at F8 when I slap on my 2X
converter to get 600mm.
You've sparked my curiosity now, and I'll be keeping my eyes open for a
good used 300/4 L. As to the range between 135 and 300 that I'll be
without - likely I'll never miss it. I won't sell my 75-300, but it's very
unlikely I'll carry it with me shooting after getting a 300 L.
Jim Davis
