<font size="2">I rented a Canon 200mm f/2.0L IS lens a couple of weeks back and took it out for a test ride at the San Diego Zoo coupled with a 1D Mark IV. It's an awesome piece of glass, I found it to perform much better than my current Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L IS lens. The AF response and accuracy with the prime lens is simply much better than that of the zoom lens. </font></p>
<p><font size="2">I think I'll try out the new 70-200mm f/2.8L IS Mark II next to see if it's a worthy upgrade from the current Mark I lens.</font></p>
