UPGRADE 300,400,500,600mm IS ?:)

toto som nasiel na nete :) co vi na to?:) Updated Supertelephotos I own a lens rental company and buy these big things. I own all the Canon supertelephotos. I was going to buy one more of 2 of the lenses and was told some things. World Cup I reported in the past here & here that new Supertelephotos were at the World Cup. We’ve also reported lens hood design changes for the big lenses. Big White Lenses Being Replaced 300 f/2.8L IS 400 f/2.8L IS 500 f/4L IS 600 f/4L IS Now what may happen is only 2 of them being replaced at one time. The most likely candidates are the 300 f/2.8L IS & 600 f/4L IS. What will be upgrades? The obvious upgrades will be the IS systems and coatings on the elements. The BIG feature will be significant weight reduction. How much? I can’t say, but that’s what I’m told. How much will they be? If you want an ultra sharp out of this world supertelephoto from Canon, just buy any of the current ones. I own them all and they’re great. The new ones will come it AT LEAST 25% more expensive. When? This is why it’s [CR2.5], I don’t have a definitive time-frame. I’m told “soon”. Lens Hood Design I for one think the current lens hood design is annoying at the best of times. The one thing I do like is that the fastening mechanism is reliable, I have yet to see one break. If they do redesign the hood locking mechanism, lets hope it holds up over time. What about the 200 f/2L IS & 800 f/5.6L IS? I’m not sure if either of these are included in the supertelephoto replacement. Outside of perhaps a new hood, I can’t see them included. 400 f/4 DO IS? I’ve heard nothing about a replacement for this lens. cr
