Hi Francis
I have both lenses too and it's not easy to say which is better. The
24-105 makes me working more in PS as vignetting and distortion ta 24
are really big and the finder is brighter with the 24-70 but 105 is very
often more convenient tahan 70 and IS is a wonder. So? I keep both but
in doubt I think tha overall I di prefer the 24-70mm.
Regards
Felix.
