Lense Recommendation
I am considering switching to a full frame body. For those of you who shoot weddings, receptions, and other similar events/parties, would you choose a 24-70 F2.8 or 24-105 F4 IS? I currently shoot a 17-55 F2.8IS on a 1.6x crop sensor, so the view through the 24-70 would look pretty familiar. It will be paired up with a… -

Re: Lense Recommendation
Everything mentioned is of good quality. One issue with the 24-105L is that is only a f4 lens - it only focuses in low light at f4. That extra stop of light when focusing can make a big different at weddings. That having been said, if I had to pick between the 24-70 or 24-105, I'd pike the 24-105. But I really don't like… -

Not that I have a lot of experience on the event end of photography (yet!), but the 24-70 was the first "L" series lens I bought... heck, it was the first non-kit, not 50 1.8 lens that I bought, and it's rarely off my camera. I was originally shooting with it on a 50D, and yes, I missed the wideness... and now I've… -

+1 for the 24-70 on FF cameras. Especially since you've already been shooting the XF equivalent. I like having the reach of the longer lens, but also like having the brightness of the 2.8. I have a D700...and my 24-70 stays on it. I also have a 70-200...and for the most part, since I've purchased it...it stays in it's… -

The Nikon 24-70 is a much better investment than the Canon 24-70, currently, as the Nikon is a few years newer than the Canon, and much sharper. And, the Canon 24-70 is due to be replaced with a mk2 version some time this year or next, judging by other Canon mk1-mk2 timelines. However, it is still a go-to lens as far as… -

Re: Lense Recommendation
I have the 5DII, the 24 - 105, and a Tamron 28-75. For most of the wedding/recption, the 24-105 was my weapon of choice. I just like the length provided and the 1-stop disadvantage was not that big a deal. When I was shooting with a 50D and the 17-55 f/2.8, I was shooting at ISO 800 as the upper limit. With the 5DII, going…
