The Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS II and 400mm f/2.8L IS II lenses have been available at times in limited quality; however, it looks like B&H has them both available now. Hit the links above for details.
Note that the 400mm lens is listed as “available for pre-order” which generally means that B&H expects it to be in stock and shipping out to customers within the next few days.

The Canon 5D Mark II has dropped below $2300 at B&H, as well as Amazon, with a price drop and $100 instant rebate. The rebate expires on Nov. 23; however, I don’t know how long the additional $100 0ff will last. For reference, it’s generally about $2500.

The Canon 500mm f/4L IS II and 600mm f/4L IS II lenses were announced in February 2011, with availability initially set for May and June for the respective lenses. In May, the availability date for these lenses was pushed back to December 2011.
Canon dropped a press release yesterday to simply say that availability is “yet to be determined” for these lenses – presumably to make it official that Canon will miss the December ship date. As for the 200-400mm f/4L IS lens, it’s TBD as well.
Official word from Canon is in the press release below. [click to continue…]
