Last year I was looking at getting the 70-400 but waited when i was told there would be a new version early this year. The revised 70-400mm F4-5.6 G SSM II is ideal for capturing wildlife and action-packed sports. The upgraded super-telephoto zoom builds further on the premium performance of its predecessor with enhanced optics and faster, more responsive auto-focus.
