Re: Canon 70-200 f2.8 IS MK1 OR Tamron 70-200 f2.8 VC

Thank you all for your help.  I kept going back and forth yesterday on which lens to buy for my trip down Highway 1 next week.

Before pulling the trigger, I decided to look one more time on Canon's refurbished site, and to my surprise, the Canon 70-200 f2.8 IS Mk 2 was back in stock.  The discount on the lens, along with the Canon promotion was way too difficult to pass up.  I figured for the insignificant price difference between the used Mk 1 and Tamron, vs the Mk 2 that I found yesterday, i pulled the trigger.

I am now the proud owner of the Canon 70-200 F2.8 IS Mk2.

I am jealous :). Congrats!
