I currently have the following lenses for my Canon 5D-MkII
70-300mm f/3.5-5.6
50mm f/1.8
24-70mm f/2.8
24-105mm f/4
I'm contemplating either the
EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 IS
or the
EF 16-35mm f/2.8 USM II
however, I'm absolutely torn on which lens to get because either lens will get equal use. The 100-400 will get use at airshows and sporting events consistently (football and drag racing) and nature. the 16-35mm will get use at car shows, car photoshoots, and landscapes, and football stadiums. (for wide angle views).
I will say I do, do the airshow, nature, sports stuff a lot more than the others. Both lenses are within $100 of each other, but I can only afford one or the other in January. I can afford the other one in September of next year.
I will be at NAS Pensacola and have rented the 100-400 for the Blue Angels Homecoming Airshow Nov 12-14th, so I get to test it out and see how I like it.
Just like to hear some feedback from other members who have or have tested both of these lenses out and hear opinions on each.
