Not sure why everyone's dismissing the 24-105 STM. STM lenses work brilliantly on the 6D. Quick accurate consistent quiet af. The only thing you miss on the 6D is hybrid video af. The op mentions nothing about video. Everything else is all win.

Not everything else - the STM lens is f/5.6 at the long end so it's a stop slower than the 24-105L. That's a stop less ability to blur the background or reduce the depth of field.
