Re: Lens 'overlap'

The difference between 17 and 24 is significant. There are various comparison examples online. I would suggest you shoot with 24 on the full frame for a while and then decide. I already had the 17-40 for use on 1.6 and 1.3 sensor cams when I went to FF. It is a partly a matter of personal style, but I do not use it very often on FF. It is also 1 less lens to carry. So you may want to get a feel for 24 on a FF before getting anything wider.
