Re: MFD on 70-200 F4L IS (+1.4TC & vs 70-300L)

Based on everything I've read about these two lenses, the IQ and performance are about on a par.

The really significant distinguishing factors, IMO, are that one goes to 300mm and the other is lighter and less expensive.

If you need or want 300mm, get the 70-300L.  If 200mm is enough, get the 70-200 f/4L IS.
