They cost about $150, and no store will have them in stock in Vancouver. It will have to be ordered in from Canon.

The 70-200 f4 is a light lens, so you generally won't need one though.

I like to use my 70-200 in the evening sometimes for landscapes, so it might be handle. Ebay is most likely your best bet. Or craigslist you can make a WTB post there and see if anyone responds. Good luck!

Use more than one, as it acts kind of like a Vtec sticker on a car - the more you use, the sharper a lens gets!
