Today I was out exploring Devils Den trying to find something to shoot to test a Canon 24-70 2.8 vs my 24-105 IS. These were pretty much all I shot, but I liked them alright. What do you think?
The 24-70 is definitely a little sharper and has less CA in the lower apertures, but as long as you stay in the 24-70 range on the 24-105, they pretty close. And of course the 24-105 wins big time for hand-held stuff.

Aaron you will learn to love that 24-70 f2.8. It is my favorite lense.

The 24-70L is my primary landscape lens and I've been very happy with it. I do however wish I had the 24-105 IS for handheld portraiture but I just haven't been able to pull the trigger on it since I've got most of the range covered already.
