Anyway looks like a great lens, and the price is "remarkable", too... Unfortunately. Interesting that it only has 17 elements while my ages old Canon 70-200/2.8 has 23 I think?
17 is the new 23? The Canon RF 70-200mm f2.8 also has 17 elements.

You can see it in the specs, your 1st gen f2.8 IS reaches 0.17x at 1.4m, the RF reaches 0.23x at 0.7m (half the distance). half the distance should have given 0.17 x 2 = 0.34x magnification, of the lenses behaved the same.
