Some of you may have noticed that Canon's website has been strangely empty this week. Here's a new model to replace one of their most popular lenses.
Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM II.
The good news is that it has improved optics (added a flourite element and another ultra-low dispersion element (5 vs. 4)) and improved image stabilization (up to four stops equivalent instead of three) compared to the previous EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM. The bad news is that the new lens may be introduced at a 40% higher price point than the previous one.
