My 300mm has been sitting there forever and all I use is my 50mm. Should I just trade it for the 24-70mm? I haven't been doing wildlife lately, only portraiture and event photography. All your thoughts? Thanks in advance.

or maybe I can trade my 300mm f/4 L IS and my 1.4X teleconverter for a 17-55mm f/2.8 IS and a 100mm f/2.8 macro??? what do you all think again?
I guess it depends on whether IS will be necessary for your intended use. The 24-70 is a good general purpose lens. So is the 17-55. Which is worth more--IS and wide angle or more focal range and reach?
