Re: Is the Canon 70-200 2.8L IS sharp wide open?

I asked much the same question myself some time ago, both on here and another photo forum. There were lots of responses telling me about just how wonderful version II was but some very telling ones from version I users, professional working photographers among them who said they were happy and saw no need to upgrade. No doubt the newer one is better than the first, but as I am always very happy with results wide open, and just a keen amateur photographer I have so far managed to stop myself falling for the upgrade.
