Nikon should make something inbetween the 70-200 f/2.8 and the 70-300 f/4-5.6 -- for the same price as that 70-200 f/4L...craziness.

I maybe putting mine up for sale on eBay tonight. Have not decided yet. Love the zoom but I think I will be better with a smaller walk around lens of good quality. Don't want to part with my 70-200mm f/4L but can't afford to keep it and buy a good smaller lens. |

Are you kidding? That 2.8's lens hood is bigger than my coffee cup. (And I drink a lot of coffee)
Seriously, good for you Bear, go forth and shoot well. You'll enjoy the heck outta that monster.
edit: to clarify...after coffee ;0)

Makes note to self: Buy cable release/remote, learn to use mirror lockup. (First shot with 70-200 4.0L at 200mm, f/10 @ 1/15, ISO 100)

have you received your tamron 28-75 yet?

Does your lens have a image stabilyzer? It's very sharp at 1/15 sec. Incredible! And a thread explaining about mirror lock up would be fine also :)
