I have always thought that good quality lenses hold their value, whereas bodies do not.
Browsing through the S/H market (dangerous) it surprised me that a canon 200 - 400mm lens with the 1.4 extender can be bought from a respected reseller for slightly less than 50% of the new price, which given the high praise it received when launched seems a big saving, goodness knows what the seller received. I would be interested to know what any current or past owners think of this lens and if it really is "the bargain" it appears to be. I say bargain with some reservation as it is still £5k.
