apologies not needed. I was indeed talking the f/4 IS, but in either case, despite the weight I still think the f/2.8 is the better choice. Ok, granted, you can carry the lighter one in the field for full daylight shooting on a pack trip, but you're hiking during the day... it's only at dawn and dusk that you're relaxed enough to enjoy your surroundings (in the right light, of course). And, with a full pack of Canon gear these days, it weighs close to 40 pounds anyway. So, what's a gram or two difference when you want your best tools with you. (of course I realize that on a pack trip you wouldn't take all your gear... but I never leave home without the 2.8.)
