    yeah man don't buy the 16-35mm if you mostly shoot vid because it might be good with the cropped sensor but when you upgrade to full frame, (which you should do asap), you won't be able to use it everyday. It's just way too wide and will only work for some cool effects. Check out this full frame use of the 16-35mm and ask if this is the look you are going for. Sorry if post is veering off subject but I am just thinking you will eventually upgrade to full frame.

    I bought the 16-35mm 2.8 a couple months ago and dropped $1,700 I ended up taking it back. It's just so wide that it's too much of a specialized lens which I don't have the luxury of owning right now. I still don't have a perfect walk around lens. Just my nifty fifty and my 85mm 1.8 (which I love zoo much)

    • Exactly. I bought the 17-40 for my 20D, when I got the Mark II it became useless....ArmandoEstrada
