UPDATE
The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being. I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure. ------------------------------------------------------------

Hello all,
I would like to ask community's opinion on the following matter.
I have (among other) 24-105 4L IS which I use as a general purpose lens when I cannot carry a large selection of lenses (in the later case I would rather use 24-70 2.8L II)
I use it for landscapes and for internal building shooting (museums, churches).
I am thinking about upgrading it to 24-105 4L IS II for the better IS.
I have seen all comparisons and Canon's MTF diagrams so I understand that I do not get much of an optical upgrade.
The offer I got is a rather modest 350 euros. So forum members suggestions are more than welcome.
Do I have a risk of getting a slightly worse lens optically ?
I believe the two lenses seem more or less the same with very small differences.
Keep in mind that my copy seems just fine fully open with 5DMkIV although I did not
make specific tests, just judging from the results.
So based on the above would you upgrade it merely for the better IS for shooting museums and churches ?
