Re: 70-300L change of mind
For me the IQ of the 70-300 L is good enough even at 300 the images turn out quite sharp (see the samples of the deer males in the water (view the 1:1 and you should see the pixel level). Theonly thing which annoyed me –in particular at the beginning- was the handling to have zoom and focus ring not in the place I was used to for so many years was quite tricky at the beginning. Even now after thousands of images I sometimes turn the wrong one but that may be me working with Canon 70-200 since decades. If you think you benefit from the 200-300 range go for it is stunning lens small and light enough for the pocket and you still have the 2.8/70-200 when you need the speed.
