Great lens, the 24L! Get the Sigma 30mm f1.4 if you are crop body and have less $$. And go with a local retailer so you can pick a lens that doesn't have focus issues.

I have one, and I love it! The color, contrast sharpness and bokeh doesn't lose to the 70-200 f2.8IS that my friend has, and the black is cool IMO. I would even say that color might be a little bit better. AF speed is pretty fast though it's not USM-fast. If you have a 70-200 f4L though I'm not sure if I'd want to move to this one. F4 and F2.8 isn't that huge of a difference, IMO, unless it's like indoors with no flash and desperately dark, in which you'd rather have IS anyways.

This set was shot with the 80-200L during an ultimate game. No sharpening added in post, just a few WB/color tweaks if even that. Body was 5D2... the AI Servo ain't bad!
