dear canon SLR users:
need advice on making up my mind for a canon lens for my SLR camera (1.6 sensor size), here what I found:
* Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM Lens
* Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS USM Lens
* Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L USM Lens
* Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L USM Lens
Least price is for the F/4 one without IS, but the f/2.8 IS has it all and seems overly priced and heavy in weight (and i heard that it is not equally as sharp as the f/4 or its non-IS version).
My uses for this lens will be for outdoor/landscape/wildlife and maybe for portraits.
Since I have a relatively shaky hand, I favor the IS versions (pricey); but I do have a decent tripod.
My question is: is the f-number worth the money? (brighter pictures?)
Thanks!
