I would like a new zoom as well, but the prices are high.

I could probably afford the EF 100-400mm f/4-5.6 (or it's upgrade, if the price is similar), but the Nikon AF-S VR 200-400mm f/4G IF-ED is definitely too expensive for me.

[I'm sure the difference is justified, an extra stop at the long end makes for twice the front element surface, the ability to use a 1.4x extender without loosing autofocus, etc, but that doesn't change my salary.]

A 200-400 f/4 zoom like the Nikon one will be nice... maybe stick in a DO if it doesn't affect the quality too much - that might cut some weight off the potential monster.

Well, things would like nice as long as we don't ask about the price ::)

+1 for that lens... Even better would be 200-400 2.8-4.0. It's already going to cost a fortune, why not do it right ;)

I would love a 2.8 version of the 24-105. that is the perfect range to complement the 16-35, and i refuse to buy anything slower than 2.8. I love my shallow DOF

^I could get on board with this! ;D I love my 24-105 but the 2.8 would make it even better. Of course it would be huge, but I don't care. I believe Tamron made one of these (maybe it was a 28-105 2.8...does anyone remember?) at one point.

For the survey, I marked that I was waiting on the 24-70 2.8 IS. I am anxious to see how it performs optically and it would be an awesome lens w/ the IS (the only reason I didn't get the current 24-70 was because it didn't have IS).

Tamron still makes it. It's one of their adaptall lenses. http://www.tamron.com/lenses/prod/m28105mm.asp

I'm happy to hear about the new 35mm. It'll be good for crop bodies as a standard lens as well as those who love the 35mm focal length on FF ( that would be me ;D ).
