OK, I am looking to augment/overhaul my lens kit. I am shooting with an EOS 3 and am planning to purchase a 5D. I have a 28-105mm IS that I have used as my general-purpose and travel lens. I had decided to sell it and procure the 24-105mm f/4L IS, but then I started thinking...and that is where the trouble started.
I also want to add the17-40mm f/4L and I am strongly considering the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS. Buying all three is a little expensive so I have been considering getting just the last two. That leaves a gap from 40mm-70mm. I suspect that I do not shoot much in that range anyway. What do ya'll think? Another option I am considering is to get the 24-105mm f/4L and some variant of a 300mm lens. I already have a 200mm f/2.8L and I am trying out the 300mm f/4L IS. So far, I have been pleased with it. The 300mm f/2.8 L IS would be my first choice, but I would have to wait a while. This option passes on the 70-200mm (this is one of those lenses I have wanted for a long time, but now I am not sure it is the best choice). I might still add the 17-40mm. I am seeking opinions on this because I seem to have myself stuck in a bit of a loop as I try to think through it. Any help is appreciated. I should mention that my first love is landscape and nature photography, but that I will also be doing some commercial and industrial work.
