Hi


I'm also thinking about upgrading to the 24-70 L from the 17-85 (using a 50D).
I also know that the 17-55 is a good lens, but the L lens seems nice and the focal length will work fine.

But will I miss IS for hand held shoots.
Have anybody experienced qulity issues with this lens. Read a review of callibration problems.

The new 15-85 could also be a great lens, but it's not f/2.8.


Looking forward to try out the 24-70 L.
