Hey
I have a Canon 100-400mm L IS lens which is, obviously, amazing.
But I don't really use it enough. I originally bought it for wildlife and think I've been out about twice with it. And also used it at a wedding.

I seem to use my camera for everyday 'walkabout' stuff, flowers, portraits and hopefully in the future at events for mobile studio work.

IF I was to sell the 100-400....what would be a good replacement? Could I afford to replace it with 2 lenses?

A replacement would have to be a GREAT lens. An L lens or something of very similar quality (IS or wide fixed aperture)

I currently have a 50mm 1.8 (which I rarely use) and a Sigma 17-70mm which is on the camera most of the time.

Have briefly looked at the
Canon EF-S 15-85mm f3.5-5.6 (possibly too slow)
Canon EF 24-105mm f4 L (like the range + quality. BUT reviews about errors :\)
Canon EF 24-70mm f2.8 L USM Lens (nice fixed aperture. any negatives?)

I would sell if your not using it.
My combo would be 15-85 £400 ish sh
70-200L £380 ish sh
You should be able to get both with the money from your 100-400L.
 
Just thought, the sigma 17-70 wouldn't be needed either if I got a 15-85mm.

Can't decide if I'd need the reach of 200mm. I guess it would always come in.
 
How about the 15-85 and a Macro ?
 
More suggestions please!
Need some recommendations.
