Nice resource, thanks for the link.

One thing that can be misleading is the statement "L series lenses offer 
higher optical quality than their non-L equivalents,". This is not 
always true. L lenses are about two things. One is optical quality. The 
other is sealing against the elements and rugged construction that will 
hold up under heavy and often rough use. In some cases, it seems that 
midrange zooms are optically as good as or better than the nearest L 
equivalent.
