Canon Lens Review: Canon EF 500mm f/4L IS USM
Enjoy:
Always a favorite of motor sports, wildlife and nature shooters, the relatively lightweight 500mm lens now adds Image Stabilization for an unbeatable package of handling and sharpness. Fluorite and UD-glass--a combination available from no other lens manufacturer--provide great performance, even with the EF 1.4x II or 2x II tele extender attached. It focuses down to less than 15 feet (4.5m), and offers the same weather-resistant design and incredible AF speed as its 300mm, 400mm and 600mm siblings.

The "Japan Quality" is also confusing .... since they are all made in Japan. Additionally the model bought overseas would not have a U.S. honored warranty.
Of course if you live somewhere other than North America maybe this information = a good deal.
