One of the best reviews I have watched in a long, long time! You answered my questions and several that I didn't think to ask. Thanks!
-
I have both of these lenses. For Portraits, for me, the 28-70 f2 is the most versatile lens ever made. It's my most-used lens for studio work. The 24-105 is now pretty much glued to my R5 for outdoor shoots. These two lenses replace 4-5 prime lenses for me.

After hearing your thoughts, Iβm still set using a RF 50mm 1.2L. I just donβt need to zoom that much. Thank you so much for sharing.

Canon 24-105 F4 difference between f 2.8 is One ( 1 )stop difference But price difference is 3 three stops ππ

Great videos! Love your comparisons!
-
you're one of the best in the business with your content, "look & feel" of your vids and your thoughtful approach to each video - great job on this comparison/review!
-
Two monsters! I doubt I'll ever get either, but really interesting to hear your take on handling.

Although this is not related to the topic of this video, I am very grateful to you for purchasing the RF 70-200/4, and I have been shooting with it for several months now. good luck to the channel
-
wonderful comparison...!!! Thank you...
-
Thank you for the comparison, I was wondering which one would be best for my workflow. 28-70 is definitely my future go-to for photos. I was thinking the 24-105 2.8 would better suit my wedding videos. It feels like you just confirmed that in this video. I will rent it first to make sure of that. Thank you for all your hard work in putting this together.
-
Very good comparison, it was quite handy to compare.
-
Tks for the video!
-
Thank for doing this! Sold my 28-70mm to get the 24-105 π Hoping for a good fix for the vignetting π
-
Another amazing video full of useful facts ! You are people's go to when it comes to lenses and comparisons... You are amazing. Also, we are still waiting for your presets to be finally available. That will be an instant purchase.
-
I preferred the 28-70 on every image. Every image. I am always surprised that my opinions are so different than everyone else's. I don't own either of these lenses, but definitely looking to get the 28-70 f2.
-
Is it just my imagination or do these lenses have very different color rendering? The F2.8 lens looks more on the red side, and the F2, more on the yellow/green side. I just think the rendering on the F2 is much better overall.

A M. AZ I N G comparison! Only the important, footage to see and compare, details provided. Pleasant to listen to. Love it! Thank you π―π«Ά
-
Thanks so much! I own 28-70 f2, your photos are pretty straightforward, f2 does make difference even compare with [email protected]. Decide to keep my f2 lens.
-
I personally decided to get the 28-70 f/2. 24-105 has such incredible versatility but considering I have two bodies, I have 28-70 + 70-200 as my setup and it covers just about everything for me from studio, events, general portraits, etc.
