The 24-70 is a bit of a waste on a crop body, IMHO as you're wasting the wide part of the lens. The 17-55 is better if you want the wide. They're both really sharp lenses though. If you're happy with what you were achieving with the 24-70 on the XTi, then get the 24-70 by all means. You can use it on any future FF bodies too.
