It's a good thing they aren't asking some ridiculous price for it, like $100,000 for instance. | | | |

Maybe if it was faster.
I won't use lenses slower than 2.8. | | | |

Had to go back and make sure I did not push the "Buy" button. Not sure I could explain this one away to my wife!
"Honey" but I got a great deal on it! Shipping was only $900 and I could not pass it up!

I think it's horribly overpriced...I wonder how much the 800mm lens will cost | | | |

Holy crap has someone called and asked if they really do have it "In Stock"? Canon has made less than a dozen of them over the years and all were special orders. | | | |
