24-105L Practical for Weddings?
Hi all. First posting. Wanting to upgrade my Tamron 28-75 etc. etc. I just bought a 24-70L. Three days ago. I have a 50 1.4/85 1.8/16-35L old version/70-200L. Then started to read of all the back focusing issues and problems with this lens, most notably on DWF. So, I'm thinking maybe with the IS I could/should go with the… -

If it's indoors, I can almost assuredly state that no, it will NOT be enough. THe IS helps, but you're shooting people, and IS can't… -
Re: 24-105L Practical for Weddings?
You have to remember, that the only people really posting about this lens are the ones that have problems. To speak conservatively, 100,000 or so for example of this lens are in use all over the world. I've seen hundreds of people complain of problems over the last several years- I won't deny that. However, that's about…
