[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 223713, member: 9521"] Right now the difference is ~$300 cheaper for option #1 (80-400mm) but option #2 does the distinct advantages of being an f/2.8 lens when the TC is removed. Right now the 70-200mm f/2.8 is selling for $2400 but occasionally goes on sale at $2100-ish and used lenses can be found in very good condition for around $1900-$2k. So assuming the two options are equal in price, which would make the better 400mm lens? [/QUOTE]
