Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM reviewed by DPR

They like it. A lot.

Overall, then, the EF 70-200mm F2.8 L IS II USM gains about as close as it gets to an unqualified recommendation, given the price. Its combination of exceptional optics and quirk-free design even manages to surpass Nikon's equivalent that we tested recently, stealing the crown of 'Best in Class' by a whisker. It's a significant improvement over what was already an accomplished lens, capable of consistently delivering results that will satisfy the most demanding of users, and you can't ask for much more than that.

Sounds great right? I'm almost willing to bet that somewhere in the photographic world, some idiot would go "but the bokeh isn't as nice as the old one" and use that alone to slam the lens. It's a great lens, and if I had the money or the need for it, I would buy it.
