My wife argues quality over quantity and is still for upgrading 70-200f/4L IS to 70-200f/2.8L IS II a lens FL that is used a lot first rader than spending the same money on 100-400f/4.5-5.6L IS II a speciality lens for wildlife and birding and general longer reach that has no 70-99mm and is a little slower at 100mm f4.5 than my current f4 lens. As you point out "not great for family/portrait"

Happy wife = happy life !

She may be right though.
