So to me, the 24-105mm is out. If you are considering the 15-85mm f3.5-5.6, you should also look at the Sigma 17-70mm f2.8-4 IS. It has a little smaller range, but the bigger aperture, and also a IS. The price is also somewhat lower. I havent seen any reviews, but they should be out soon (maybe also on this page).
