No complaints, just love.

I've been totally pleased with this lens. It has served me well for years. My viewpoint is tempered by experience with zooms that go back to the 1970s - 80s or 90s when they were no way in same league. It's not used as often as I expected because my sports shooting has become mountain bikes shot close to the photographer, but it's just awesome when needed.

Re: No complaints, just love.

I loved my 70-200 f/4 IS very much but just sold it to fund for the 70-200 f/2.8 II! I hope it will be well worth it! Still, the size and weight and IQ is superb and I am gonna miss it at times.

Here are some wildlife images with this lens with the 7D from my recent Masai Mara, Kenya, Africa Trip. My main lens was the 500 II on 5D3.
