Its a fantastic lens, pretty light compared to the f2.8 so its travel friendly. I bought one 5 months ago and have not regretted it.

That would be your £1000 spent in one go!

I second the 70-200mm f4 IS.

I went the extra mile for the IS version as did Dave. In fairness I had also changed my body from a 400D to a 550D, but prior to that I wasted money on lenses I soon upgraded.
Once you have really good glass it's hard to compromise on lesser lenses, but you know good lenses are keepers. Camera bodies become upgraded through technological advances year on year, but a good lens remains a good lens throughout.
