I wonder if there are any differences between the different production years. As far as I can tell, this lens seems to have the same design and technology today as when it was released. Does this mean that one should look for another option instead?
I have also been told that the IS function on this particular IS lens does not support panning, meaning that it will record the panning movement as a lensmovement and then try to compensate resulting in even softer pictures than this optical design already gives. Compared to the 100-300 USM, the IS version is said to have no FTM, a rotating front lens, and extends when zoomed. Sounds like an annoying lens in many ways..... Your opinions and experiences are most welcome, sa always.
