My 24-105 IS 4L did the same thing. I used it fine on my 400D then upgraded to a 50D and it kept doing this error. Cost me around £180ish to get it repaired. I wasn't impressed at all,...

Stick with the Canon glass and go 100-400mm or 500mm.
The best thing would be to stick with the lenses you have and go for one of the 70-200mm L lenses to give you some extra reach. I would go for the 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM if you have the cash.
...
Best lenses for walk around are: 24-105mm F4 L which some one has also said and if you want something bigger the EF 28-300 f/3.5-5.6L IS USM which you mentioned as well which would give you extra...
Out of the f4 IS or the f2.8 then I would personally go f2.8. But I want action stopping shutter speeds which "IS" is useless for.
The f4 IS does have the 2 mode version which would be good for...
If you want IS the f2.8 is better value as its not twice the price for IS.
I had the 70-200mm f4 L and it was a great lens. I now have the f2.8 L for the larger aperature, as I didn't see the...
Personally I think it is down to knowing your equipment and its limitations. Then timing to capture a great moment. Which can be down to a bit of luck or a camera with a high fps.
I have taken...
Check this website out: http://www.dofmaster.com/dofjs.html You will see that there is a lot of things which effect your DOF and it is not just the aperature. Focal length and distance to subject...
I would go for the 2 zooms, 24-70mm f2.8 L and the 70-200mm f2.8 L IS.
The 70-200mm is great for getting those more spontanious shots, I have the 70-200mm f2.8 L IS and it is great, really good...
Get the 70-200mm f4, it is a great lens, I use to have one before upgrading to the f2.8 IS and it produced great shots. You can get extension tubes that will give you a bit more macro on normal...
If you could go another $700 you could get a 50D body only and get the 24-105mm IS F4 L. The 24-105mm IS f4 L is a good general walk around lens and it is L glass as well.
Then when you get your...
70-200mm 2.8 IS with a 1.4 extender. It is the better one for sports (f2.8 nice and fast), portraits (2.8 gives really good bokeh), weddings (low light).
The 100-400mm IS is more for nature and...
Now you will want the 70-200mm f2.8 IS next.
Try and go to a shop and try them. I think you will go for the 70-200mm 4L when you can have a go with it. Also remember that the more light that comes in the faster the focusing. The ideal one would...
If you are using the lens for sport then "IS" is not needed due to the high shutter speeds required to freeze the action. When I had the 70-200 F4L, I used it for horse riding events and didn't need...
The best thing you can do is work out how high a price you will go to buy a lens. The reason is a lens will last many years and many camera body upgrades so it is better to invest well.
The...
To get the best from the 500D you need good lenses. So out of those you have listed the one to go for is the 24-105mm IS F4 L. I have one and it is really good.
But the first lens I got to...
