Re: Canon EF24-105mm f/4L IS USM
This lens isn't what you want to shoot the Milky Way with, but if it's all you have with you, at least you can come home with something. I have to say, I'll never "love" this lens, but I sure do end up using it a lot. "Going on a trip, taking the 5D3 and...the 24-105...". (but I was really wishing I had my Rokinon 35 with me for this shot, wasn't expecting the opportunity to shoot stars so didn't pack it)

Re: Canon EF24-105mm f/4L IS USM
Went to the hot rod show today and used the 24-105 as a walking around lens. I added a lot vignetting in Lightroom.
This was at F/4.5, 55mm, ISO 100, 1/320 using the 5D3.

Bouchon in Napa, one of the best breakfasts I ever had, along with several glasses of the house red. Every time I look at this picture I want to go back.

Okay, I succeeded in confusing myself... I always liked my 24-105mm but I never loved my 24-105mm so I finally sold it. Now I miss it. Think I'll order another one... sigh...

Re: Canon EF24-105mm f/4L IS USM
I have been considering one of these to replace my Tamron 28-75 as well. Should I pickup a new copy or go for one of the good looking used ones on ebay? I would use it on a 5 and 7D.
I have the Canon 24-135 is usm that actually takes beautiful shots on my 5D but not as much the 7D...makes no sense to me.
Or should I just stick the with 24-135 since I already have it.
Thanks.

Re: Canon EF24-105mm f/4L IS USM
I'd go for the 24-105mm over the 24-135mm too. I'd sell them both and pick up a new or almost new 24-105mm. Personally I like new. Sometimes there are some excellent almost new copies out there. Always ask the seller for the date code though and only go for the newest. When buying used, I always buy as new as I can get...
Good luck!
Oh btw, I've used the 24-105mm L on both my 5d Mk III and my 7d. It performed flawlessly on both...
Personally I'd go for the 24-105mm L over the Tamron in a minute. I've shot that lens and it never compared to my 24-105mm. Have you tried AMFA on your 7D with your 24-135MM? May make a difference.wsgroves said:

Re: Canon EF24-105mm f/4L IS USM
Thanks for the info Ken. I sometimes have a problem parting with items....like a mini pack rat lol.
Its odd my luck with lenses, my tamron is tack sharp and takes great pix on my 7d but on my 5d its a little off. On the 5d the pix froom the canon 28-135 are great but on my 7d a little off. Maybe it needs calibrated to my 7d but I havent gotten around to doing it. My tripod is broken atm and I dont think you can do that w/o one.
I do have the tamron 17-50 which is very nice on my 7d but wont work on the 5d as its for cropped cameras.
