I didn't have problems with mine. As they mentioned earlier, take it down to CSC..

I once purchased the 70-200 f4, in the end saved up and bought the f2.8IS. Absolutely no regrets. Agree on the weight issue and the cost, but after you get it and you use it, you know that every penny was well worth the spending. Moreover, don't think you'll be carrying in around the neck and...

For me i use both, had to do some minor configuration such that the hand grip serves it's purpose with landscape shots, definitely on right - right handed

If you're just trying out but forsee yourself going and growing into photography, it might be wise to consider the lower end DLSRs. But as the others have rightly put it, you must also consider the future expenses of the lenses etc. Also, time is another factor, no point having the best...

FF, no need to think twice!

Definitely 2.8, i used to own the F4, upgraded to the 2.8IS, absolutely no regrets whatsoever. The price is different, and so is the weight but when you take a look at the end product, you know that you've made the wise choice.

Agreed about getting the body and 24-70mm/f2.8L lens separately is a good idea. However, weight wise, the 2.8 is heavier than the 4.0L, by quite a bit.

5D Mk II definitely.. Having the option of the video as well.. No need to lug around a videocam, or sometimes worse still, whip out the phone and start to bungle the functions, before you know it, action gone.
