Re: Is 24-105 on a FF better than 15-85 on cropped body?

Great question! I've contemplated upgrading my T3i w/ 15-85mm to a 6D w/ 24-105mm. The main motivation is to take advantage of some of the great primes and thin DoF. However, I wouldn't be able to afford the primes I want right away and would have to live with just the 6D and 24-105 for a while.

I want to make sure I'm not taking a step back from the T3i + 15-85mm combo. It sounds like no, but could one of you that owns both combos take a photo or 2 of the same scene with similar settings and post it to this thread? It would be greatly appreciated! Something with good lighting. Obviously the 6D or 5Dm3 will shine at high ISO.
