However, I just realized that the 75-300 USM III (non-IS) still seems to be a current lens.[/quote]
I don't know why, but a lot of shops outside Europe seem to bundle this lens instead of the (equally priced) 55-250 IS with new cameras.
But who understands Canon? They don't even offer the 7D + 15-85mm kit in the US (although they do offer it with the 28-135).
IMHO Canon could cut a whole bunch of old, long superseeded lenses out of their lineup.
