I was talking to a fellow bird photographer today, and he mentioned Canon had just announced it will produce a 200-400 f4 zoom. This should be available this year. I checked it out and it's a fact!
It will come with a built in 1.4 tele extender.
Music to my ears!
Copy and paste this for the story.

Loved my Nikon 200-400 - and I love Canon's idea to build in a TC 1.4 option.
THis should be a killer lens.
