Possible prototype lens spotted in video

looks like a 100-400ii to me. Even if it was a 24-300, he would still be zoomed to 300 if he was focused on that athlete. I don't imagine it would be a reverse zoom like the original 24-70 f2.8

Yep, I've judged watched it again and he may actually be shooting past the athletes head!

24-300 spotted again?

In fairness, the 100-400 II can focus as close as 3 feet away. I've been given plenty of weird looks while on assignment using the 100-400 II at close-focus and 400mm to try to get a close-up detail from someone's hands/outfit/etc, it looks really weird to be 3 feet away with such a huge lens!

Man, bumping this thread got me all thirsty for a 24-300L again. Y'all suck!
