Hi there
For the past 5 years I've been using 5Ds with the Canon EF 24-70 2.8 (I) to shoot stock, mainly in studio.
Here they work great but when I go to exterior it's a disaster... very noise and a lot of out of focus images.
Since the noise can be a problem from the camera, which it's a shame, specially considering that I shoot at 100 ou 200 ISO maximum, the out of focus is from the Canon EF 24-70 2.8 (I).
I've made a test with another Canon EF 24-70 2.8 (I) and the results were the same. I've tested both lenses on a 6D body and the results were... the same.
So I have to conclude that the Canon EF 24-70 2.8 (I) is a soft lens.
Do you agree?
The problem here is that I'm afraid to go outdoors with this lens, because I simply don't trust it.
So I have 2 options... to change to a Canon EF 24-70 2.8 (II) or... buy a 50mm 1.4 which apart from being a standard lens, is awesome on detail.
So my question to you is...
Is it worthy to try the 2nd version of the 24-70?
Many thanks in advance
