Looks like there is a new EF200mm f/2L IS USM and a EF800mm f/5.6 IS USM that will be out soon.

Who's going to be first in line?

From Canon: "As these new lenses are currently under development, pricing and availability information is not yet available."

...but your house, car, and first born should do for a down payment!

On my wish list are the 70-200 f2.8 IS ($1700) ... the 24-70 f2.8 ($1150).... and the 40D ($1300) which total $4150 less the resale of some lenses I'll dispose of gradually... my 70-300 IS, and probably my 28-135 IS. I think the 200 f2 IS alone might pay for almost all three of the things on my wish list. I figure the 200 f2 IS will cost similar or more than the 300 f2.8 IS at $3800 - $4000.

I have no obvious need for the 200 f2 IS. However, I would take one if given one.
