I think if they put the old optics in a VR casing etc they would sell way more then an updated 300 f2.8 VRII. There are so many people that can buy up to 2000$ but just don't have the money to buy the 300 2.8. But they also have to be able to produce massive amounts of a 300 f4 VR since this would sell so much more. Definitely.

We'll see a return of the 300mm f/2! Seems kind of pointless to update the f/2.8 right now. The f/4 is clearly a better candidate as others have pointed out - but then again, there are other lenses even more deserving. Maybe… just maybe… We’ll see a return of the 300mm f/2!

+1

Some Vancouver venues — and some Olympic sports — will require a 300mm f/2.8; an update here — with enough pre-manufactured stock to satisfy NPS members shooting in Canada in a few months — is a wise move.
