Many people have long waited for it and I think with tamron announcing theirs with vc it would take Way too much business away from Canon.

Canon will continue to bring in nice profits. _

K6AZ Cream of the Crop  More info | Feb 07, 2012 06:57 | #69 kcbrown wrote in post #13840698 Well, guess what? They did . And they want $2300 for it.And announced two wide angle primes (24 f/2.8 and 28 f/2.8) with IS, exactly where IS is needed the least. I guess because they're slow primes (f/2.8 on a prime? Really), they need IS.  Way to go Canon. You sure know what your customers want. Slight correction - in the press realease I saw the price is $2600. So not only do you pay 50% more and not get IS you also get to buy much more expensive 82mm filters.

Unless you're able to write-off lens purchases as a business expense, I believe many hobbists, regardless of disposable income, will not be able to justify the price of the new 24-70 II....

Feb 07, 2012 07:33 | #71 82mm thread? I can live with that since this one has VC and wont break the bank... If it is as good as the 28-75 with those new features than I am sold. http://natureimmortal.blogspot.com

If it is as good as the 28-75 with those new features than I am sold. Yeah I'm intrigued. I love my 28-75 for days and times when you have decent ambiant light. This could fix any issues I have with the IS. If its anywhere near the price of a used 24-70 mk1 then I'll have a tough decision and it would all come down to IQ.

umphotography grabbing their Johnson  More info | I can promise that this will be a very closely watched lens when it gets released. If it performs like the 17-50 and the 28-75......its going to be a huge hit,,,,,,,even if the focus motor is noisy:p Mike

The focus motor will not be noisy! 6D, 5D, 7Dii, Eos R and too many lenses, flashes and aux. gear to list!
