Canon 24-70 f2.8L Vs 24-105 f4L IS
Please help: I am tossing up between the following lenses. Canon 24-70 f2.8L USM Canon 24-105 f4L IS USM Please, what are the pro's and con's of both of these lenses? I have read some great feedback on B&H for the 24-70, but none on the 24-105. B&H states that both lenses are designed with weather protection, but is this… -

Re: Canon 24-70 f2.8L Vs 24-105 f4L IS
Both I have both. Because you are on a 1.6 crop factor camera, the focal length of 105 is equal to a longer lens and the 24 might not be wide enough. You might want the 17-55 or the 17-40 lens. I use the 24-70 when I am shooting and need macro. It gets up closer than the 24-105. It's also better for low light with the 2.8… -
Re: Canon 24-70 f2.8L Vs 24-105 f4L IS
with what Kathy has said. In addition, things to consider:* The 24-105 is an f/4 - great for outdoors, not so great for indoors. * On my 30D, the 24-105 can hunt for focus a bit in dimmer environments. The 40D focus system is better, but .... * The 24-70 is a best of breed lens. I don't think the 24-105 quite lives up to… -

I have both 24-105 F4 and 70-200 F2.8 IS. The 24-105 F4 cames with the 5D as package. I like it very much. It is the excellent walk about lens for the full frame body. Covers the wide angle to portrait. F4 is not that slow, the IS helps to push 2-3 step exposures which is good enough for 90% of shooting conditions. I got… -

Re: Canon 24-70 f2.8L Vs 24-105 f4L IS
I know it was mentioned earlier, but there is some buzz that if the 5D is replaced at Photokina in a month or so, which it should be, that they may be releasing a new version of the 24-70mm possibly with IS which would make for a pretty sweet lens. Anyways you may want to think about giving it a month or two to see what… -
Re: Canon 24-70 f2.8L Vs 24-105 f4L IS
Hopefully you are getting the idea that each lens has advantages. The right lens choice really depends on the application. I know you said "I'll shoot anything.", but you need to decide for yourself whether the extra range and IS of the 24-105 are more important than the extra f-stop and better bokeh of the 24-70. My ideal…
