I personally would go for the 24-70. I'm in the market for one at the moment as it is. Also, my dad was talking to a well known railway photographer a couple of weeks ago that shot Canon and he was saying that he wouldn't have a 24-105 given now as he's had 4 in the past (warranty replacements) and they were all lacking in sharpness and build quality!

Anyone heard of "Lencarta" Studio 3 Flash Kits
Ah, thanks for the clarification on the power scale, that makes sense. Whilst I agree with you on the suitability of the units for all lines of work, and you have to remember I have no experience in these matters, from what I have seen on various podcasts etc.The likes of 'the big two' will appeal to a certain type of studio.

So they come to a forum and ask for advice - sounds reasonable to me... But then get driven away by people who have a lot to say but nothing to contribute. Sad. So you have been 'lumbered' with the job 'cos the other person left. Rethink the brief and represent it to your management... and take a chill-pill friend. Enough said.

Well, what a coincidence with this thread, mine arrived this evening and it's just a tiny wee one, just a single stem. So tomorrow afternoon I might get the camera out.

Which Photography Magazine?
I'd concur with the recommendations for Ag, Lenswork and BJP. There are others too like Hotshoe, foto8 and Portfolio - whose current edition . I also enjoy LIP magazine which I get as a member of London Independent Photography. I used to be able to buy a lot of different mags when I was in London, which I wouldn't want to buy regularly but were available in places like The Photographers Gall...
