Paul,

You don't say which version you have...the f/4 or the f/2.8 ?

There's a thread here (from yesterday) discussing the merits of the f/2.8.

Whichever one you have should be fine...they're both very capable lenses.

I have the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM on a 40D, and love it. Here are some of my images with it...

Paul,

There's a healthily stocked archive from the f/2.8 here
