[imposterjeff]

So i foundout i get to shoot mayhem festthis year i will hopefully have a 5d and 24-70l by my date but i will have atleast a 5d and 50mm which kind of sucks but i will make it work. should i go for a 16-35 mk1 or a 24-70

24-70 is more versatile.
Unless you really need wide of course.

Depends on your style. For me, I wouldn't mind having the 16-35 for a few artsy wide shots of the crowds and a few of the artists but probably would make most of my shots with the 24-70 so I'd personally go with the 24-70. You are on a 5D after all so 24mm will give a decent wide shot.

Agree. 70mm will allow you to reach and isolate the drummer.
