The EF 24-105 f4.0 L IS lens I have is one of my most sharp lenses in my bag. I also have the EF 28-70 f2.8 L which I actually prefer over the 24-70, but it is much less forgiving than the 24-105. Granted it's not as fast as the 28-70, but the focal length, color and sharpness are grand.


But if you don't like the lens, why not RENT something you're considering before buying? I'm always amazed how few people do that. For me it's worth renting a lens that I am seriously considering as a purchase to see if my hopes intersect reality. If you find the lens you rent is better for your needs than the 28-105, it's a no brainer at that point.
