Hi Peter,

All I've heard about are the few lenses in the pipeline such as the EF 50 f1.2L.

What's wrong with Canon's EF 70-200 f4L? Don't know how it compares with your 100-400L in weight, but it sort of compares in spec with the Pentax lens you cited.

I've been thinking about these lenses and just happened to have the weight info available.....
70-200 f/4 L IS    1.675#( 26.8oz)  /  760g
100-400 f/4.5-5.6 L IS  3.1# (49.6oz) / 1380g

Sure, the 70-200 is a full frame lens but it is just a bit more than half the weight of the 100-400 and it is f/4 throughout the zoom range.
