Not sure why they didn't just update the 24-105. I'm guessing this new lens will be ridiculously sharp and maybe have cutting edge IS, but still. As Danny^ said, I'll take the added reach of the 24-105. — Neil

2n10 Cream of the Crop More info | Oct 30, 2012 14:39 | #4 The lens fits in nicely with the 70-200 F4 lenses. I would suspect that Canon has received lots of feed back for the 24-70 F4.

Oct 30, 2012 14:50 | #6 I am guessing it will be smaller and lighter? The 24-105 is pretty good but I am going to assume it has the image quality of the 70-300L which IMO is way better than the 24-105. Website

Shadowblade Cream of the Crop More info | Oct 30, 2012 14:53 | #7 Maybe the 24-70 range will be like the 70-200 range - that is, with f/4 and f/2.8 versions, in both IS and non-IS versions.

Why give up the reach to 105mm? The 24-105 is such a nice walk-around zoom range. 7D | 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM | 28mm f/1.8 USM | 50mm f/1.4 USM | 70-200mm f/4L IS USM | 430ex II

Just a hunch... The 24-105 is quite bad at 24mm compared to the new 24-70 II... It is a HUGE difference, actually. If they make a 24-70 f/4 IS with the sharpness of the 24-70 II it will be a success if priced right. it's pretty big... Think new Canon lenses are overpriced? Lots (and lots) of data will set you free!
