It's a cracking lens even on a crop body. Its my main lens on a 50d. I sold 17-40, 35 1.4 and 85 1.8 and moved to the 24-70. It's a very flexible lens and 2.8 is fast enough for my needs, no regrets. I am not a huge fan of super wide so 24 works for me. Coupled with any of the 70-200 its combo that's hard to beat in terms of pure flexibility.
I totally agree with the flexibility when combined with a 70-200. Granted, I'd rather shoot primes for the image quality, but when your chasing kids around nothing beats a zoom for flexibility. Again, some may argue that 24 isn't wide enough on a cropper, but for me, and others, it's plenty wide. Any of Canon's L's are total workhorse lenses, with fast enough focus that any issues have either been my error or because of lack of light/contrast.
