EOS 40D Question: Best lens to choose for portrait/people shorts ::
This is the lens that got me into professional level events and weddings. 24-105 f4L looks attractive, but f4 embarrasses me. 24-70 f2.8L ?? This would be at the top of the list for a full frame camera such as the 5D, but for the crop cameras Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM Sigma DC 18-50MM 2.8 EX Macro

I tried the 24-105 but I missed the background blur of the 2.8. So I returned and got a 17-55 2.8 IS. It was great for my 30D but I got a 5d. Now I only want to use my 5d and 30D is a backup so the 17-55 is collecting dust.
I took a look at the pictures that I took with the 24-105 and they are sharp and with great contrast. I haven’t tried the 24-70 2.8 but people say its great.
I also have a 70-200 2.8 IS that is a sweet lens with the 5d.
I should mention that I do mostly weddings, and I am interested in portrait and journalistic photography.

I 've got the 24-70 2.8L and am not completely happy with the picture sharpness at 2.8 . I can see a noticable softness that goes away at 4.0 .

So I am thinking I can get my bokeh with my 70-200 and possibly buying a 50 1.4 or 85 1.8 and get the 28-105 4.0 for everything else. However, I heard that the 24-70 is sharper, freezes action much better (2.8) and is better in low light.
To use as main wedding lens (80% of time) what do you recommend?
Do you know any website where I could see photos taken with both lenses?
I thank you in advance for you answers

24-70. It brings in double the light as the 24-105. Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 24-70 F2.8 ZA SSM Reviews at Dyxum.com::

24-70 f/2.8 on a 5D - my favorite SLR combo.
Yep, it's a landslide decision. Get the 24-70 f/2.8. As good as the 24-105 is, it does have it's difficulties in less than ideal lighting situations. Unless you shoot weddings at high noon on a cloudless day. :)
If you plan to shoot weddings with it you should stick wit the fastest lens possible. Having the 70-200 2.8 you will never miss the 105 you will get in the slower lens.
Welcome to the forum.
The 24-70 F2.8 on your 5D and the 70-200 F2.8 on your 30D. How does that sound? You could add an ultra fast prime like the 50mm F1.4 or the 35mm F1.4 (or even the 85mm F1.2), for when you want to shoot really wide open.
Typical wedding Canon Zoom:
24-70 f2.8L and 70-200mm f2.8L
I will pile on to the landslide. 2.8 with a 1.4 50mm in your bag.
