I just got myself a new 70-200 F4 IS II.
I've used the 2.8 versions, but found them to be too big and heavy to use all day, so I bought myself an F4.
As light and easy to use as my 24-105, and as I rarely need F2.8, I went for this.
Got it cheap too.

Here's a few shots I took yesterday. IT has great bokeh. Of course, I had to get some shots of my cats.
What else do you test out a lens with?

Taken with 5D3 and mostly wide open.

Excellent work and congrats on the lens. I love my 2.8. Weight doesn't bother me - I'm used to lugging a 100-400 II and 1.4 III on a 5D4/EOS-R both with grips, so weight stopped being a consideration for me a long time ago. :)
