Like I said earlier, I find that when I want to take a distance shot, the 105 end of my 24-105 isn't enough. I suspect that if I had the 70-200 f4 that it would spend most of its time at 200mm. So I'm trying out the 200mm f2.8 to see if I can live with the lack of versatility while taking advantage of the speed. I have it for two weeks, so time will tell. Basically if you want speed at 200mm, your choices are this lens or one of the 70-200 f2.8 lenses, both of which are way pricier. (Of course there's the 200mm f2, but that's in another ballpark entirely.)
