I was afraid that would be the answer! I was thinking I'd sell my prime, to help deflect the initial costs of the 24-70 (because I need the zoom capabilities)...but now I might just bite the bullet and do both....

Honestly, it's fine. Just because the prime is a bit better doesn't mean the zoom sucks. Once you reach a level of acceptable sharpness, you're just splitting hairs.

WOW, you convinced me to be happy with my 24-70L

I don't think it took my picture to convince you of that.

Goofing off at the Kentucky State fair. My first day walking around with the lens on my new 5D Mark II and good lord it was a huuuuuuuuuuge change from my 50D + 50mm 1.4. It is so ridiculously crisp and vibrant I am extremely pleased.

Canon 5D Mark II, 24-70mm 2.8L , 50mm f1.4, 70-300mm EF USM f4/5.6, 100mm f/2.8 macro, other goodies.

I usually shoot people with my brick, but it also works great for little critters and flowers.

I usually shoot between f/2.8 and f/4 (portraits and stuff), but I tried out f/6.3 for a few shots and was BLOWN AWAY by the sharpness. I really need to shoot more landscapes!
