GMCPhotographics Goldmember  More info | Aug 21, 2009 13:28 | #3152 I get critisized a lot for saying that the "look" that a good 24-70/2.8L gives to a picture isn't that far off an L prime...it really is the DOF that's the only difference. Your beautiful photograph here perfectly makes the point loud and clear. Just look at the natural optical vignette, the colour rendering and the manner of the out of focus areas.....just sublime. See...Guys....a good 24-70L is a thing of beauty and it should be considered as one of Canon's great lenses...even though it's a zoom. Regards, Gareth Cooper GMCPhotographics

Getting a good copy is the trick I suppose...though the one I've owned and the one I borrowed this past weekend were both spot on.

Wish I had both...but just not worth it when I've got primes covering that range... Good for you, but i don't care, i will collect Zooms and Primes, Zooms are done, so only primes is left, and it can be includi9ng 24mm or 35mm or any prime even if it is covered by a zoom, almost i am covered with zoom from say 10mm or 12mm up to 400mm without any TC and on FF regardless that crop factors, so which prime i should get rather than 500, 600, 800,.... then?!!!
