I\'m not sure how much heavier is the 24-70 than 3 primes.
Well... on the camera of course Anyways, it\'s always weight vs versatility vs. quality. None of the the top quality zooms are really light... the new Sigma 24-70 HSM is the lightest zoom in that category, but as I said, I am not confident about its quality. I would settle for something like a 24-105 f4, but even that lens, as good of a reputation it has, isn\'t something what I\'d call top quality.
