As my signature says, I have a 17-40 f4L, a 50 1.4 and the 80-200 f2.8L. I have a lead on a good condition 24-105 for $500. Would this be overkill? Please consider the bodies I have while answering this question as well.
Thanks a bunch!

If you were ok without a "normal zoom" till now, you'll be fine in the future. You can get them for 600 on fleebay... but if you don't need one, why go through the hassle? National Sarcasm Society.

Sep 09, 2013 02:15 | #7 I shoot mostly controlled studio work. I've recently gotten into street photography and just walking around. Occasionally I'll find myself at an abandoned farm or school for a shoot. I'm fairly new at this so I'm still kinda figuring myself and my style out. Bodies: 6D, EOS-M, & 1Ds(for sale)

For the Studio work then the 24-105 is a must have, you'll be shooting at F4 and up anyway so don't hesitate on this deal

Sep 09, 2013 09:51 | #13 buy it, and use it for as long as you like, then sell for profit. Seems like a no brainer especially since you have multiple bodies. 17-40 on your FF and 24-105 on crop would give you massive range. Sony A7siii/A7iv/ZV-1 - FE 24/1.4 - SY 24/2.8 - FE 35/2.8 - FE 50/1.8 - FE 85/1.8 - F 600/5.6 - CZ 100-300 - Tamron 17-28/2.8 - 28-75/2.8 - 28-200 RXD

Sep 09, 2013 10:24 | #14 Hmm. We must go deeper. 17-40 on the ff, 24-105 on the 1.3 crop and the 80-200 on the aps-c. That covers me from 17-300 right? Haha Bodies: 6D, EOS-M, & 1Ds(for sale)
