Ken-
By "freeze up", do you mean the camera doesn't engage autofocus, or
metering, and the LCD reads an aperture of "00"? If so, it's happened to
me. Just like it did with Edward Agnew's new 70-200 IS lens.
I took my A2 body into my local camera shop and put a new - out of the box
- 100-400 on it. I took some test shots - maybe for about 10 minutes, and
it froze up like I mentioned above one time during that time. I turned my
body off (to "L") and back on and it worked okay the rest of the time. I
just figured.... well, I knew it wasn't right, but... I didn't know why it
happened. I sort of assumed it was because I had an older body. I'm
thinking about getting a 70-200 2.8 (don't know which one) and am a little
concerned it would happen to me. But I'm also thinking about getting a
new body - perhaps a 3.
For what it's worth...
