2 new lenses coming from Canon

As far as the 24-70/4L is concerned - its MTFs should be better than the ones of the 24-70/2.8 II. It's obviously slower and as such way easier to design and given the rather marginal price difference the quality of the used materials should be pretty much up to the same standards.

Marginal price difference?



Canon lists the 24-70mm f2.8 L USM II for €2623, and this new 24-70mm f4 L IS USM for €1495. 57% of the price, or €1128 less, that is not marginal in any sense. <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />

The 24-105mm f4 L IS USM is listed for €1291.



The new f4's MTFs look quite a bit better than the 24-105mm's.



I do agree (as I said before) that the price is too steep.



Do not forget though, that the new EF 24-70mm f2.8 f4 L IS USM doubles as a macro lens, with its hybrid IS system from the EF 100mm f2.8 L IS USM Macro and its 0.7x macro ability (1:1.43 is really good).
