Consider the 24-105 over the 24-70. Lighter, sharp, and the f/4 is a non-factor for wide, really.

The 24-70 F/4L IS is lighter than the 24-105 F/4L IS. :confused:

I have the Sigma 24mm Art, which is a great lens, but I bought it before the 20mm Art was announced, which I would consider instead, now.

Between Sigma primes vs L zooms, question is: How much do you shoot in low light?

The 35 Art and 50 1.4 are my go-to low-light lenses at the moment. I think I really just want to have coverage wider than 35.

Sounds like the 16-35 F/4L IS is the winner!

I grabbed a 16-35 F/4L and I like it so far!

There's also the 17-40 f/4 L that's even cheaper. One of the cheapest L-series zooms available afaik. And pretty good by most accounts.

I'd previously owned a 17-40L but the 16-35 F/4L has IS and better sharpness overall. I think it was worth the premium so far!

Sterlingtek are great and reliable. I've used them in all my cameras for nearly a decade with zero issues.

Seconding this. I've got 4 backup SterlingTek batteries for my 5D3.

Sterlingtek is the brand I've used for the last 12 years or so. I used them with my olympus and then my canon dslrs. They've been around a while and their batteries are usually sold in a 2 pack and $15 each or less. Zero issues, they usually have the same or higher capacity than the original.

For full day weddings (8-10 hours) that I shot 1k photos, I usually had a battery grip with two batteries and I never ran out during the day. I have wasabi batteries for my gopro and I've never had issues with them either.

Same, Sterlingtek had been my go-to for 3rd party batteries since my Rebel XT.

Is this lens compression?
