I've used the new 16-35 f/4L IS several times under really cruddy light and been delighted. My old 16-35 f/2.8 (version 1) has been relegated to a drawer for backup duty. Center sharpness is similar to the 24-70 f/2.8L II and the corners/edges are light years better than the 16-35 f/2.8.

In theory I want the lens to be f/2.8 to match the rest of my lens lineup, but I honestly have not missed the extra stop.
