Love this lens for landscapes. The IS really comes in handy when you wan't to stop down without a tripod.

Photos really don't show much in my mind as processing, camera control, and light in the scene depicts most of the IQ. I will just say, it is a great lens. In my expierence against my other lens - sharpness is high, focus speed is good, lens flare, vignette, chomatic aberration are all at a minimum.

Love this shot. Superb..!!
Thanks. Glad you like it. It helped a lot that it was a very grey rainy day so that there wasn't too much contrast for the camera to record.

I recently purchased the 5Dii that came with the 24-105mm, although I should have gotten the 5Dii alone as I already have enough lenses for it. Anyway I will list it up sometimes this week or next week if anyone is interested. Never used it and the warranty has not been registered. Purchased it directly from Newegg, an authorized Canon dealer. Feel free to msg me.

Sold mine about a month ago and replaced it with 24-70L for wedding work. It's been God-sent. Believe me.

But in the process, I realized I missed the conveniency and the range of 24-105L way too much. So, bought it again; should be here before Christmas. :D

^Nice composition! May be a bit of cloning is needed to remove those legs on the left hand side? Merry Xmas...

[Pommekitty]

I haven't had the occasion to use that lens much since I bought it a couple of months ago (the second half of autumn was a succession of rainy days with very rare exceptions) so I just fooled around with it for the most part but I'm really impressed. It's my first L lens and didn't disappoint.

I used to apply a certain amount of sharpening to my pictures in DPP and then in Photoshop (usm + selective sharpening) but the 24-105 is so sharp that I hardly need to do that anymore. I leave the sharpening on the default setting in DPP and I'm pretty much set except for a bit of selective sharpening aruond the eyes for portraits and such.

I love the colors and contrast it gives and the USM is no slouch for my action pictures either. I almost never use the IS but it's a nice feature to have for when you need it and it works extremely well.

Best thing of all: my bank account is not as empty as it could be since I got a really good deal on it ($600 for a used copy in mint condition. It seriously looked like it had never been used).

I can't wait to test it out more. My contribution to the thread for now:

The Hohneck Inn after the first light snow of the season. I have a 40D and the 24-105 is plenty wide for landscape stuff. It's the perfect range for me:

http://i808.photobucket.com/albums/zz10/pommekitty/Fall%202009/IMG_4502smll.jpg

This is almost a 70% crop and the thing still looks almot too sharp. That was one of the first photos I took with it and I still wasn't used to the sharpening process with this lens.
http://i808.photobucket.com/albums/zz10/pommekitty/Fall%202009/IMG_4636smll.jpg

The 24-105 is quite a piece of glass. It does everything I need and does it well:)

[peterbj7]

My 24-105 is on my 5D 70% of the time, as is my Dust Pump. The nifty 50's only on there maybe 5%, but the Wigma's there at least 25% of the time :lol:

The 24-105 is a great lens. This shot was taken last weekend on a 1D Mk3 and was on 50mm focal length. Exposure was 1/250 @ f13. The harsh light in the snow has given the shot an almost sepia tone look but is virtually as shot apart from a bit of shadow detail and a little sharpening.

Not an improvement IMO. The lights in the tree are green...

Phil, thanks for the effort, but my original posting is pretty much exactly how the room appeared in real life because the only lighting was from the fire and tree lights, both of which have a warm color to them.

I love this lenses. I take it every where and a great walk around lenses for me. It takes colorful and sharp images as you can see from many posts in this thread.

I used it all over New Orleans a few weeks ago.

Phil, thanks for the effort, but my original posting is pretty much exactly how the room appeared in real life because the only lighting was from the fire and tree lights, both of which have a warm color to them.

I quite like the warm feeling of your original pic.

Wow what a place !! Bit different to my back yard !! Lovely shot very well taken. Excellent quality all round.

[amyandmark3]

Nice hdr Toff!

I just did a Google Earth measurement, and this shot was taken about 3,900 miles from my hometown in a direct line, wow!

[sagray]

That's a beautiful town! Where were you when you took the shot?

[peterbj7]

Gorgeous picture. If I had guessed I would have said it was in Scandinavia somewhere, not Holland.

Thanks guys!

I was on the resturant called "Fjellstua", which is a very common place to go to have a view over Ålesund.

Haha, you are right. I am not Dutch, I am Norwegian ;) Just studying in Holland, and was home for Christmas when I took this picture.

[restyles]

Where in Norway is it .. I thought it looked odd for Holland !!!

[S-S]

I quite like the warm feeling of your original pic.

yeh i agree... i think a good middle ground would be to leave the room orange for the firelight and make just the tree lights white for a bit of contrast

its a fine line between keeping a feeling of warmth and an 'obvious beginner' tungsten orange, with indoor lighting

Just check out the map on Flickr (linked with the picture), I think I nailed the location pretty well.

Yeah, there's no mountains in the Netherlands. I've been to the tallest one (http://www.flickr.com/photos/toffiloff/3790873215/), but that's just 300m or so hehe.

Oh im really >><< this close in pulling the trigger on this lens for my 50D...

WHUT?!? YES a CROPcam! -But.. but.. the 17-55 is THE holy grail blabla yatta yatta.. -Not for me it isnt...


Oh how i want this lens to be my outside walkaround companion next to my 10-22 :D

[peterbj7]

For a FF camera I can't think of a better walk-around lens, from any manufacturer. Not sure about for a crop camera though.

[Invertalon]

I really am looking at this lens to replace my 17-85 in the next few months... I plan to get a 10-22 to cover the wide end when I need it. Outdoors, I rarely shoot below 24mm right now. So it would work well for me!

My thoughts exactly. I also have an tamron 17-50 which is a bit short for my taste when i'm outside.

Allthough the 17-55 is the praised lens for crop, i believe the 24-105 is very well suitable for walkaround purposes on crop. It all depends on shooting style.

I never go under 24mm as i'm walking around, and the times i do want to be under 24mm, i want to be a lot under it... Thats where my 10-22 comes around.

the 17-55 is perfect for people who need a fair amount of wide angle as they 'walk around' other need a fair amount of tele.

My 70-200 is great, but too long as walkaround, my 17-50 is great, but too short.

When I go "putzing" (walkaround) I will real often take my 40D rather than a "business" camera (5D or 1DMkII). If I am going to a family get together or some such I may even take my 10D rather than worry about a camera getting knocked off a table or a drink spilled on it.:(

I will mount the 24-105 on it and that will take care of most of my needs. I will stick my Tokina 12-24 in my jacket pocket or my wife's purse for those occasions I need wider. I have got a great, light travel combo!:D I don't even need to take a backpack if my wife is dragging me around shopping:rolleyes:

Tony,

Yes, all the indoor images had the flash fire from the 30D body.
