Sorry, this is a re-send message as my last one has an incorrect PC
clock setting.
I had a chance to get my hands on the 70-200/2.8 IS in a camera show
here in Hong Kong yesterday. My impression is that it's AF speed is
slightly faster than the non-IS version when coupled with an EOS-1v. The
thing that strikes me most however is the total elimination of the
'mirage' effect normally associated with Canon IS lenses for the first
second or so when IS is initiated. After all, this is a second
generation of the IS system. I expect all the big 'guns' viz 300/2.8,
400/2.8, 500/4 & 600/4 will be upgraded to this 2nd generation IS soon
