    Ooof. Not going to do 2 in the range. You felt the 70 cropped was a lessor image than the 105?

    70 cropped to 105 is not bad, 105 cropped to 150 is not bad. 70 cropped to 150 is not good.

    A broader lens zoom range that doesn't sacrifice IQ is a good thing. Trading a stop of light is ok in a walk around lens, for me at least, although having something fast for low light indoors is often useful.

    I view the 28-70/2 a less of a zoom lens and more of a collection of fast primes.

    I noticed the 28-70 at 50mm was pretty stunning.

    I guess my GAS will have to be tempered.
