Thanks for your prompt replies

Thank you J A C S and Abu for your quick replies. When you say that it's noisy, is it significantly noisier than the 2.8 II's IS?

Also, I notice that the f/4 doesn't come with a tripod collar as it's quite light compared to the 2.8 IS II, comparatively speaking, however, weight aside, it is still a long lens. Do you feel that it needs the (ridiculously priced) tripod collar to counter the length and improve stability (and lessen the strain on the camera mount) or is it fine as is for mounting on a tripod via the camera?

Thanks again,

Mark.
