Are you going to "upgrade" your 24-70 2.8 I

[Hugo Fisher]

I would like to move from mk I to mk II version. But I can't still reconcile with lens hood moving when zooming. That lens look so cheap. And it is so impractical (rain, dust). I would love mk II with big hood attached to main "tube" like mk I has.

Nope. I don't have any issues with the IQ after AFMA calibration. Any imperfections near the periphery are cleared up pretty good in Photoshop. I'm happy with the Mk1.

With the recent post here referencing the article by Roger Cicala at LensRentals (http://www.canonrumors.com/forum/index.php?topic=8510.msg154847#msg154847) about the newer glass being the bomb on 5D3 and 1DX, I will strongly consider the 24-70 Mk.II. I am not all that happy with my 24-105, it is OK but not as good as I would have thought therefore I may step up and get rid of the 24-105.

I have a very sharp and relatively new v1(UZ), so I haven't made up my mind. If v2 had IS, there would be no deciding. I'm going to wait and see the reviews and real world results before deciding.
