Does this lens works OK with my EOS 450D. Any feed back
Yes. It should work fine.
No it wont work. If you've bought it already, you should probably just call UPS and have them ship it to me. ;)
Only kidding! Welcome to the forums! That lens will be wonderful on your camera and I can't imagine you'll have many (if any) complaints!

Thanks Roger, you scared the living S*&^% with your first sentence. LOL
OK thanks for your reply
Thanks Sean
You will love this lens. It is a lens I insisted I didn't need, that the range was too vanilla. And now it is my most used lens and it probably the sharpest lens I have ever owned. It is sharper than my 24 1.4 MKI and 50 1.4 primes.
it's an EF lens, it works on any EOS camera
I look forward to my first picture
What camera body do you use?
The 24-70 is a great lens works equally well on my 40D and XTI, I normally have it on my XTI and the 70-200 2.8 IS on the 40D. But recently Ive only been lugging around the 85 1.2 II, absolutely fantastic lens.
You will be very happy if you purchase or already have purchased it.

I recently shot a wedding. My main lens was the older but still fantastic 28-70/2.8L and I used it with my 580EX II on a borrowed Rebel XSi + batt. grip. My 10D + 580EX switched between 100/2.8 Macro, 50/1.8, 70-300, and 16-35/2.8L. When I needed to go wider, I put the 16-35 on my EOS-3. With that setup, I only used the flashes for about 50 shots out of ~1,400.
In short, the 24-70/2.8L will work fantastically on your XTi. :-)
Got one for my 400D a few weeks ago. Great piece of equipment. You'll need to get used to the weight and the badass hood, but it's worth it.
The only thing I can think of is the balance is a little of on the smaller bodies.

I didn't realize that the lights were sodium vapor lights and even with a manually set white balance, some photos are greenish and others are reddish, since the light flickers. Lots of WB corrections in Lightroom. [:(]

I use mine on my XTi and it works great I've loved it since I bought it last winter
I use mine almost exclusively on my 5DmkII.
