I think you never had a 85LII. After the 200F1.8L it's the best IQ/ bokeh wise looking lens in the whole Canon lineup. And I love it to death. So I will never sell that one. :)

Still thinking about selling the 24-70 for a 17-40L and 35L. My nifty 50 will cover the 'gab'. I am addicted to nice bokeh thanks to the 85LII so I think I will really like the 35L. I'll use the 17-40 for architecture and landscape stuff.

I think I will go for:
- 17-40L
- 35L
- 50F1.8
- 85LII
- 70-200F4

For now.

My ultimate setup would probably be:

- 14-24L (when it is available)
- 35LII (")
- 24-70L
- 85LII
- 70-200LII

Oh and btw. I really don't need a new bag or something. I just can't decide if I have to sell the 24-70L.
