** Note: So I have shot with the older version of this lens and it have amazing image quality – incredible defocus quality and other than being a monster to carry and for many it being a fixed 300mm and not quite as flexible as some other options this is definately on my wish list for lenses to own. Weighs in at about 6lbs
