  1. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the current one. It’s difficult to see what could even be improved upon to make a significant difference.

I can't agree more with your statement. When looking at the Mk I vs. Mk II lenses, there are several things which got improved: Lack of weather resistance, loud AF and maybe a bit slow or inaccurate AF as well as some improvements with image quality.

The 90 f2 already is a WR lens, has silent and fast AF. In addition it is already sharp wide open at f2.

I have bought the lens a few months ago and am very impressed, it quickly has become one of my most used lenses, my only gripe is the size and weight. Personally I never worried about a possible Mk II version, because the one which is available already is simply great.
