As of August, the CanonRumors site had this to say:
"The long awaited replacement...
Weâre told production for the EF 100-400 f/4.5-5.6L IS will be âcoming to an end soonâ. Production for the replacement will begin sometime in late 2013 or early 2014.
Canonâs lens production has had its share of issues in the last few years with the new super-telephotos and to some extent the EF 24-70 f/2.8L II. Weâre told until the EF 200-400 f/4L IS 1.4x production reaches demand, Canon will not be producing the replacement to the long-in-the-tooth EF 100-400. All issues are apparently going to be resolved sometime this fall.
An announcement and release may depend on how fast Canon can sell off existing stock of the 100-400."

Might be true but I bet the new version is a crap load more expen$ive (based on past experience) :-( |

Yup! This looks like a very good deal to me. |
