Sorry haven't logged on in a few days!
I had the 70-200 2.8 IS and the the version II is much sharper, has faster focussing and shorter min focus distance.
I almost always leave it at 2.8 as its that sharp wide open. I was never happy with my version 1. Was not sharp wide open but the new one compares to my 85L wide open.
I feel it's worth the money as I sold my version 1 for minimal loss and only added a few hundred more for the newer one.
I played with a 2x TC version 3 and it was pretty damn sharp too!
The newer IS allows for some ridiculous hand hold ability (ss 1/20 @ 200mm is still sharp if I try a little).
Let me know if you ever want to try it out
