Seriously consider the 70-200 F4 L (with our w/o IS). I have the non-IS and it's not a very heavy lens at all to carry around. my friends are usually surprised how light it is and it's MUCH lighter than the F2.8 version (that thing is 3.5lbs i think?). I only find it gets heavy when i'm gripping my cam (50D) with the 70-200, and also my 580 EX II speedlight attached...

IQ is amazing on the F4, especially in the day time or outdoors. Colors just pop out.

The crappy thing is, once you have tasted what an L lens offers, it's tough to go back....
