Re: should i keep the Canon 24-105 f/4 if i have the 24-70 f/...
I had both when still shooting the 1D series and used 24-70L most of the time. The faster opening speed and color consistency with the 70-200L/2.8IS that I also used were main reasons to work mostly with the 24-70L. But I do agree the 24-105/4.0L IS is a great allrounder and wonderful for travelling as a one lens does it all solution. I liked the range very much for full frame and I have to say it\'s still a tempting idea to buy the lens back. I didn\'t until now cause I still have good hopes there will be a 35-105/2.8 like lens for EF mount in the near future. That would be a great replacement for my 24-70L and take away the desire for the 24-105L. It would be the non-cinema version of this 2.8/35-105 lens
For what you do depends on your shooting style and needs. I know quite a few people who did the opposite of what I did, sold the 24-70L and bought the 24-105L. I can perfectly well understand because the 24-105L is great allround EOSfun for your mark III
