Re: Canon 17-55 f2.8 / Canon 24-70 f2.8 ii / Canon 27-105 f4

I came from a 7D/17-55 combination and then went up to a 5D3/24-105 then finally sold the 24-105 and got the 24-70II.

No regrets whatsoever in going full frame AND in ending up with the 24-70II. I do not miss the extra reach of the 24-105 at all and the 24-70II is spectacular IQ wise. Since I had the 17-55 for over two years, the 24-70II does all the 17-55 does and more. Going full frame plus using a great lens for me was a quantum leap in terms of satisfaction. If you have the funds, I suggest not to wait. The enjoyment I get from my new set-up (and, I suspect, with the 6D/24-70II for you) is just on a different level.

Yes, I am am still trying to improve my technique and art of photography but even now, I no longer have this "there is still something missing" feeling, especially IQ-wise.
