how many days on average , per year will you use the 400? Maybe staying with the 200 and renting the 400 IS II on weekend deals for now is workable? Lets you kick the IS II tires w/o huge cost. Last summer they had deals here for $ 40 or 50 for 4 day long weekends, Fr, Sat, Sun, Mon.

Thats a good idea.  I checked at a local camera shop and they have both the EF 300 f/4 L IS  and the EF 400 f/5.6 L available for rent, right around $50 per lens for a 4 day long weekend.  I think I'll rent each one and see how useful each ends up being for how I shoot first.
