While for my kind of shooting (tripod & non-moving
objects) most often I do not need IS or a overlapping
focal range (I only have a 50 between 35 and 70) this
would be a great lens, even occensionally for me. I do
not understand why there is no overlapping between the
28-70 and 70-200. For some situation that is really
annyoing, I think. When you work in the range around
70 you too often feel like having to change the lens
to get the right shot fast. The overlap of the 17-35
and 28-70 is great. If that just would be true between
28-70 and 70-200 many people would feel very happy, I
think. These people probably would appreciate IS as
well (they need to change lenses fast so they probably
neither use a tripod nor monopod). Hopefully, Canon
will come out with a 28-105/2.8 IS and 70-200/2.8 IS
sometime in the near future (nope, I won't buy it but
I think it would be great to have).
