I'm in the market for a new lens and having a tough time deciding between two , after deciding not to buy the monster 150-600 that i was looking at (Thanks to all who contributed to that thread, but after trying one out, it was way too heavy)
I don't see myself upgrading to mirrorless any time soon , and if i do upgrade the body, it will likely be to a 90D so another APS-C / Crop Camera.
The two lenses i'm looking at , are the Canon EF 24-105 f/4 L , or , The the Canon EF-S 17-55 f/2.8 (Not L Series , and as far as i can tell, there's no Mk2 version of this)
The 24-105 is naturally more expensive coming in around £750 used, whilst the 17-55 comes in at around £400 used. I've been using my Sigma 35mm f/1.4 and 70-200 f/4 L for a couple of years now since upgrading from a 17-85 (Which doesn't work properly anymore)
Any thoughts or recommendations ? My concern is that using the 24-105 on a crop body is going to be a "waste" so to speak as i won't be able to get as wide a shot as if i were on full frame , but also concerned that the 17-55 won't perform as well overall.
TIA
