And expensive. My first was the 24-105 f4 L which is a great walk about lens. A while ago I bought a sigma 120-300 f2.8 - great lens, super image quality & loved the f2.8 but sooo heavy that after 12 months I sold it and acquired a 70-200 f2.8 L IS... although not quite a long, 1/2 the weight, & IS. I love it - L series no 2. By now getting addicted to f2.8 lenses invested (?) in a 24-70 f2.8 L which is awesome, with the intention of selling the 24-105 ... but just not got round to it so that's L series no 3.

I think its the fast max aperture and the fact that they are sharp full open that does it for me
