This lens does not seem to get much attention. I think it is a pretty interesting lens, especially as a standard zoom with good video performance.

Not really sure what Canon was thinking with this lens. The 24-105L is already available ~$600 BNIB as part of a kit.
In addition the 24-105L has the following advantages:
1. Parfocal (focus doesn't change when zooming)
2. L lens (resale value will probably be higher)
3. Weather/dust sealing.
4. Actual full-time manual focusing.
5. 8 bladed aperture (vs 7)
