- Thom's Short Comment: I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I do. Makes the old F-mount versions look, well, old. This lens is good enough—that S designation is deserved—that it introduces a conundrum to mid-range lens users. Do you get the 24-70mm f/4, the 24-120mm f/4, the 24-70mm f/2.8, or maybe even the 24-200mm f/4-6.3? My answer is this: 24-120mm f/4 unless small/light is important, then you get the 24-70mm f/4 (preferably at the kit lens pricing). You should already know if you need fast (f/2.8) or more flexible (24-200mm).
