Stickin' around at Photorumours is certainly more entertaining than finishing a review of a 70-300, I can understand you. Yes, price increases this way are "naturally", just think about "Raider" becoming "Twix". It's okay if I spare me the use of an ugly smiley here?

it's now official same design but improved coatings, wonder why they didn't improve the IS it's still 3.5 f stops while they redesigned the 70-200f4 and added a new IS system with 5 stops

Great, the releases that probably nobody asked for.
Still good from the corporate standpoint - the planned obsolescence marches on, and the threat of making the existing lenses non-repairable alone is probably going to "convince" a chunk of the userbase to update.

Well, that happens if engineers notice that smartphones are still accepted even with obviously planned obsolescence - and the fairphone (with exchangeable modules) couldn't convince enough consumers.
Apple will not support certain models of their iWatch with the next update of the watch's OS. 18 k€ (of the luxury version) becoming outdated in much less than 5 years. Maybe the companies collecting gold teeth will pay a couple of bucks for them...

... make best Things better and call them MK3... quite good for all who Needs always the best or newest.... good for all, who want to buy the "old" MK2 - but now for tolerable Prices
I´ve seen that there is a Version 70-200 f:4 IS MK3 out now too. May be they changed only the printing...

There is no 70-200mm f4 IS MK3.
