Wow very nice. So much chatter about the 5d Mk IV was beginning to think people forgot about the new lenses. I'm vaguely in the market for the 16-35. I have the Mk II. It's great for many purposes. But the CA. I'll wait to see how well CA is controlled in the new one before considering a purchase.

Once again, I'll be keeping my eyes on user reviews of the 24-105. If those reviews are favorable-as I suspect they will be- there is a place in my bag for it. In line w/Canons current lens offerings, these should provide great optical performance.

The 24-105ii looks promising. Adding weight means adding elements for correction.
Yes. And better light transmission too.
DxO rates the transmission of the current 24-105 f4L at 5.1.
I guess the new one will fare better.

Wondering how much it'll be. Maybe $1100?
The rumors say that the 5DIV will come in two kits: one with the 24-70/4L and another one with the new 24-105/4L.
I'd assume that there will be a $400-500 price difference between the two kits.
So, the price of the new 24-105/4L will likely be $1400-1500.

Nice to see they'll become reality soon ;D

What is the extra little 'lump' on the side of the 24-105? Right beside the 24-105 mm label? It appears the switches for AF/MF and stabilizer on/off are on the left side of the photo just like on the current version.

Zoom lock?

Hoping that is lens lock plus marco on / off just as the 24-70 F/4L
100% this is a zoom lock.
I don't believe in a dedicated macro functionality like the 24-70/4L has, even though it would be really nice.
If it was so there wouldn't be any reason for the 24-70/4L anymore (except for the size/weight).
If I was wrong here I was really happy ;)

Here the same: macro functionality would be gread. It will not replace the 2.8 100 macro but make a good "single lens solution" for a variety of applications - landscape (+ some closeups of flowers, stones), cityscapes (+ some closeups of e.g. building ornaments, etc.).
