But look on the bright site.... In the Netherlands the pricelist is renewed and there is still a 100-400 4.0 L IS USM on there!!!!!!! So hopefully it will arrive in the near near future.

Interesting they complain the focus points are concentrated in the center of the frame. I remember people complaining about the 5D2 cited Nikon as being better for this. Also to note on this $8,000 camera, 5fps (for full frame), no dust removal system and high ISO performance not quite up the 5D2. D3X review up on dpreview.com.

Nikon already has 2. The switch to Nikon seems reasonable for a lot of people now. Will Canon ever release a full-frame camera that can shoot above 5fps???

But I would sit here and figure out a way to buy one! Hehe I was talking about fantasy I guess… that f/2 would be twice as heavy as the 2.8 probably.

Doesn't that make you part of the lazy flock? Who is the one company anyways? Checking the Nikon blogs shows a lot of people whining about their choice of equipment too...

It's back-ordered everywhere I've checked, other than amazon, where they have a whopping 2 in stock. For those of us on a budget, this would be a nice one to have, but not if they're no longer being made! What do you all think - update, or just slow manufacturing?

I bet they are sweet but how many are going to bite at those prices... the 100-400/4 will be huge and cost as much as the nikon 200-400/4 ....that's simply a different product category then the current 100-400... why not make it a 200-500/5.6... a bit more expensive than the current lens but still reasonabl ish .... now for the 24-70/2 I wish but I also have to wonder how much that is going to set you back... yea…F2 and F4 zooms… no thanks…. did you see the prices on those TS-E lenses?

I just hope Canon is saving their money and cranking out a 24-70 f/2 and a 100-400 f/4. That'll get my blood racing. They must have had those TS lenses in development for a while because it seems like an odd time to bring out such a niche product when there's so much quality competition coming from other areas. ya that’s true.
