Re: Old 24-85 USM on full frame?

The 24-85 comes up quite cheap in used listings, and there's a reason. There are enough reviews and blog posts to judge it by. You should generally be able to predict what you get with older lenses: less contrast and generally more chromatic aberration. It has a bit more contrast than the 28-105 but more CA.

If you're completely obsessed with weight you're in the wrong system, try m4/3.
