Would you consider the 16 a good everyday lens? I am torn, now thinking maybe I need to also consider the 24-70?? So confused!

We're a Canon/Profoto family: five cameras, sixteen lenses, fifteen Profoto lights, too many modifiers.
yes, the 16-35. I think you are right it would have to be paired. I am a single camera outfit though, so I am trying to make that part work.
I tried to get away with the 16-35 as my everyday walk-a-round but it just can't get in tight when you need it. So I bought the 24-70 and it is on my 5DmkII 75% of the time. In fact my 16-35 is my least used lens now (70-200 2nd most used). I love it and wouldn't part with it but with the 24-70 being so versatile and ridiculously sharp it is the work hors and I now definitely endorse the 24-70 over the 24-105.
