Re: Which lens should I get? Canon 24mm 2.8 IS USM vs Canon 28mm 2.8 IS USM

I went 24mm because I already had 35mm and 28mm would have been too close.

However, I consider a 28mm as a "one-lense compromise" for those who don't want to carry both (24 & 35).

Ultimately it's about your use case and preference but my advice would be that 28mm is easier to manage than the quite wide 24mm. 24 is a bit more specialised in a sense.
