UPDATE
The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being. I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure. ------------------------------------------------------------

I've read tons of reviews comparing the two lenses. Seems there are supporters in both camps. Not here to argue over which lens is better for what purpose.
One of the common arguments with getting the 300 over the 400 DO is price:
- CPW price for 300: $5600
- CPW price for 400: $5800
The $200 difference is minimal if you're spending that much on a lens. Given that both lenses are practically on equal footing as far as price, what would people choose? Is it still a matter of picking the FL you're after? Is the IQ difference between the two (e.g. bare, 1.4x, 2x) minimal enough to where it IS really about FL?
Just curious about what people say now that the price for the 400 DO II is a lot less than retail ($6900).
