David,

Yes, those "L" lenses are heavy.  I had the 75-300 IS and I was not happy at all with 
the image quality.  I went for the 70-200 2.8L and I have never looked back.  The 
image quality is far superior.  Maybe you may want to check into the 70-200 4L if the 
weight bothers you.  I would NEVER go back to that 75-300 IS lens.  The 70-200 2.8L is 
such a great performer.

I have te 28-105 that is supposedly similar in image quality to the 28-123 IS.  I was 
not happy with the image quality so I bought the 28-70 2.8L.  Wow, what a difference.  
I love this lens too.  It is a heavy thing to carry around.  But, that's the 
sacrifice.  I kept the 28-105  for vacations when I don't want to carry so much gear 
or just goofing off.  Again, I never looked back on my decision to get this "L" lens.
