Looking at the charts, it isn't that much better on paper. Very curious to see if there's really any visual difference. I think the only real selling point they'll have is MFD and possibly focus speed improvement.

It could be a choice for people looking to pick up a 70-200mm L to begin with, but I don't see many people going from the original to the II.
