The one I rented was the 70-300mm DO IS lens - and I didn't care for the DO (diffractive optics) very much : )
The 70-200mm f/4L is winning more and more points in the back of my head, as it's quality matches or is better than the higher value lenses - and i'd almost rather spend ~$500 on the 70-200mm f/4L and also bump up the quality of my wide angle lens (e.g stepping up to the tamron 17-35mm f/2.8-4 lens as a stop-gap to getting a 16-35mm f/2.8L : )
Of course much of this may be moot, the question of whether or not there is money to spend on this isn't answered yet.
