Oh.
Thanks for the elucidation, sir...
Now I won't be hankering after that lens. <g>
What the wikipedia listing doesn't provide is a picture of the
EF24-70/2.8L lens fitted with lens hood and mounted on a body... The
lens hood is *huge* and makes the assembled kit enormous, almost as
big as the 300/4L IS with the hood collapsed. It presents a serious
challenge to fit in any bag with the hood fitted in a "ready to use"
manner.
