I was planning on buying a 5d mark II but I am not sure what kind of lens to buy. I haven't read the review for the 24-105L but I would like to know the general consensus.


5D Mark III, 5D mark II, EF 50mm f/1.2L USM, EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM, Tokina 11-16mm F2.8, EF 24mm-105mm f/4.0L IS USM

Depends on whether you need the extra stop or the extra reach, I had both and kept the 24-105 as it served my purposes better. The wide end on the 24-105 has noticably more distortion than the 24-70 so that could be a factor to you as well. IQ is the same from my experiences, I actually think my 24-105 is a bit sharper than my 24-70 was but that could simply be due to copy variation.
