I thought about that but never got around to it. There are some inexpensive knock-offs on ebay. I lost the 135L in a smash and grab and haven't replaced it yet. There has been a lot of buzz about a revised 135L as well as this new 85L 1.4 IS. I think the new 85L should be a good replacement for now but I expect I'll still replace the 135L at some point if a new version doesn't appear. It's a great focal length that pretty much replaces a 70-200L for my purposes.
The 100L macro is even worse IMO. Seems especially odd for a Macro. You have to take the hood off for close up work where you would most like to have it for protection. Maybe I can get a volume discount on eBay.
