Re: Three "L" lenses I always carry...
I'm actually slimming down right now on my "L" lenses. I need to recoup some of my investment and I've nailed down my range too.
I shoot mainly with a 5DmkII but occasionally pull out the 40D with the 100-400.
1) 16-35 2.8L II is my favorite/walk-around. I love 35mm, it is my favorite perspective and I really love the ability to jump out to 16mm at any given moment.
2) 70-200 2.8L IS is my second favorite. It is a great lens although my wrist start to ache after and hour or so.
3) 24 1.4L is in my bag, love the sharpness of the fixed. It use to be on my camera a lot more before the 16-35 II came along. I still love it because sometimes 2.8 isn't fast enough. It is a little bit wider than my preferred 35mm perspective but 24 is very useful.
I also have the 100-400 but I don't carry it in my main kit. I usually just take that out for air shows and outside sports stuff.
I am actually selling my 24-105. I actually really liked this lens, but I always found myself either shooting wide with it (which wasn't it's strong suit) or long with it, so I determined it wasn't a lens I needed any more.
