Apples and Oranges are hard to compare. If you need the versatility buy the
zoom. If you do a lot of scenic or photojournalism work and use 24mm often
then the 24mm F1.4 may be better to get those available light shots.
If you don't need the speed, Consider the Sigma 17-35mm F2.8-4 EX lens and
with the savings buy the Canon 24mm F2.8.
