The original Canon EF 70-200mm f4 L is also an awesome bargain!

This is the one I have and I love it. I'm usually on a tripod so IS isn't a big deal for me.

So why are you reviewing the image stabilised version if you have the earlier , original , non stabilised version ?

This is the lens you've doing a review on ; https://www.dpreview.com/products/canon/lenses/canon_70-200_4_is

So what lens do you have ?

You also stated 'The IS is effective, but my God it makes such an annoying high pitched sound when turned on." Which suggests you have the image stabilised version and not the original , non IS version .

I also have the first image stabilised version , but I can't say it makes much noise .

i had the IS kind and made the noise mentioned by OP. the non-IS doesn't make any noise.
