NEw lenses of interest, are the 120-400 HSM OS 150-500mm HSM OS and the new 200-500mm f2.8 which has a new colour scheme which looks perfect for us wildlife photogs!

I'd go for that 500mm F2.8!.......if it did not weigh 3x as much as my current 600mm F4.....

The 120-400mm is one I'm keeping an eye on.

Me too Rob, the 80-400 OS was a reasonable lens, let down by its slightly slow DC motor. It was every bit as good as the 100-400L in my testing. The120-400mm promices to be a good "walk around lens for me" and replace the slightly too short 70-300 VR
