I would be considering swapping my 70-200/2.8L for an IS version for specific reason of getting hooked to shooting rock concerts. I found most useful shutter speed range theer is 1/20-1/60 (and f/2.8) due to horrible lighting nature (for photographic standpoint, of course) inherent into such kind of events. Also, the practical limit of my persoanl handholding of 70-200 is about 1/40 at which I'm yet capable of getting reasonable results. I think IS has great potential in this field.
What is the shutter range IS is most effective in ? Can is be 1/20-1/60 (before applying IS) ? I knwo fast primes would be ideal way to go, but I rarely get full photo credentials into pit area (especially at large venues) so cannot relay on constant, close distance and undisturbed shooting without the crowd around. Otherwise I would certainly go with something like 135/2, 100/2 Would anyone be ineterested into like new 70-200/2.8L with original pouch and box to be trade in for IS version in similar condition (with additional cash of course) ?
