In that case, you might also want to consider the Olympus 70-300 which is equivalent to a 100-600mm and when combined with a capable camera like an E-5, is only 1.4Kg and ~USD2100. The 7D + 100-400L combo will be 2.2Kg and ~USD3200... a difference of around 750€.[/quote]
Thanks for the suggestion but I'm happy with my Canon gear and don't plan to change systems.
