Hello folks, I have the Canon 24-70 f.2.8 ii and i'm considering buying the new Canon 35mm f/1.4L II but I'm thinking that it might be enough to have the Canon 24-70 f.2.8 ii as it covers the 35mm but without the f1.4.

I need your advice, does it will make a huge different for me to have the 35mm 1.4 ?

Thanks

Do you want to shoot handheld or action in extreme low light? That is the central question. I'm a photojournalist and don't feel an overriding desire for this lens with modern sensor technology, but your needs may be different. I far prefer the flexibility of the 24-70 f/2.8L II.
