EOS Bodies - For Stills / Re: Thinking of downgrading my 5d3 system
« on: January 06, 2013, 01:12:12 PM »
Hi
I understand the weight issue !! (as i'm 60 and have been reducing the weight of my gear !)
firstly if you don't need 2.8 then.....
70-300L IS is an excellent lens i own it !! (just about every owner raves on it)
24-70 F4 L IS is obviously going to be a good lens
24-105L IS is a cheaper alternative its a good lens with extra reach over the 24.70 BUT..
beware of the barrel distortion at 24mm (i own it !!) but lightroom takes care of that
Optically and sharpness you will be giving up very very little by changing lenses ..go for it !!
5d3-60D don't know that i'd do that yet ..(wait for 6D +24.70 F4 IS IF !! ones comes out ??)....you do save 200g on weight tho by going to 6D ...your call !!
