Where's Neuro? Must be on vacation with his 600/4.

You beat me to it. Been wondering where he is.

Truenuff. Its been a real problem getting the 400doii. Apparently matching the 2 halves of the element is super tedious. The lens has been in production for almost a year now and there have been less than a hundred made afaik. I don't know if that's the best they can do at the moment or if there is some other reason for not producing more?

Maybe Canon is secretly cranking out 600 DO lenses for 1DXII + 600 DO kits.

I'd be doing the same if I had the money. Of course I'd also have the full set of Fuji lenses and maybe a Nikon D810 with a few Sigma lenses.
As is I have the best system on the market and am entirely satisfied (aside from a mild case of dial-envy for Fuji cameras).
If Canon would universally adopt the addition of just one more dial with 10 slots for custom modes that might get rid of my Fuji envy.

Please no built in extender.... Keep the weight down to current 500 f4 ii or less weights and it is hand holdable and transportable. Add on the extender and you add weight that could be left home or out of your hands all day.

Or make two models one with extender(s) and one without.
