Does anyone else use this combination?
I'm starting from scratch as I'm upgrading from an Olympus E510.
Now I've pretty much 99% made my mind up on the 70D as the video capabilities really float my boat. To be honest it was a toss up between that and the Nikon 7100, IMO the 70D pips the 7100 in the video department, hence wanting the 70D.
Now the bigger decision... I'm going to be stuck with 1 piece of glass for a while (unless I can convince SWMBO to let me get the cheap Canon 50mm)
HDEW (yes I now they're imports) do the Canon 70D & EF 24-105mm f/4.0 L IS USM or for a touch more from Jessops I could get it with a 18-200mm f3.5-5.6 IS lens.
I know glass seems to be the 'be all and end all'
So I really have 2 questions...
1. Is the L glass really that much better?
2. Which combination would you pick out of those two?
Thanks in advance,
HG
