Hi all, I'm considering between the 2. Any pointers as to which would be more suitable for me?
I'm currently using a Canon 40D with the EF-S 17-85mm and 50mm/1.8. I'm an occasional freelance writer and I do my own photos for my travel and food-related stories for magazines - 4 stories so far and looking to do more this year. Looking to upgrade as I'm not very happy with the photos from by the 17-85mm. I don't think there's sufficient detail and clarity.
I find my 50mm too long for indoor food shots while seated at a table (I don't use flash so a wide aperture is needed sometimes). I'm inclined towards the 24-70mm due to the 2.8 aperture but the 24-105 is cheaper and has IS function.
What should my other considerations be?
