Bro, if you have budget constraints then the Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 is worth a look. It's a lot cheaper but its performance is still tops. It even got a highly recommended mark from conservative lens reviewer photozone.de (canon's 24-70mm 2.8 L didn't get highly reco.hehe)

Below is a review of both lenses from photozone.de:

1. Sigma 24-70 EX DG Macro
http://www.photozone.de/canon-eos/318-sigma-af-24-70mm-f28-ex-dg-macro-canon-lab-test-report--review

Verdict

The Sigma AF 24-70mm f/2.8 EX DG macro showed an impressive performance throughout all characteristics. It is a very sharp lens at all mainstream aperture settings. Distortions, CAs as well as vignetting are moderate and usually nothing to worry about. The build quality is very fine and the AF is pretty fast despite the enormous glass elements and a conventional AF micro-motor. The biggest problem of the Sigma is not performance but its scope. When used on APS-C DSLRs the zoom range (38-112mm) doesn't really qualify it as a standard zoom in the true sense although it surely has some appeal for press and basic portrait photography. It will be interesting to see how this lens will perform within the full format test scope.

2. Canon 24-70mm F2.8 L
http://www.photozone.de/canon-eos/184-canon-ef-24-70mm-f28-usm-l-test-report--review

Verdict

The Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 USM L proved to be a worthy representative of the pro grade lens league ... if you can get a good sample. During the last two years four lenses has seen the lab with only one within specs - this is disappointing especially for a lens of this price class. If you´re lucky enough to get a decent sample you can expect a very high performance level, especially when stopped down a bit. Distortions, vignetting and CAs are well controlled. The build quality is superb with only the reverse zoom extension as a minor downside. Even so the 24-70mm range is not all that attractive on APS-C DSLRs (39-112mm) - the EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 USM IS is a better and cheaper bet except regarding build quality.

The 24-70 2.8 is a great walk-around lens bro. Yung focal lengths na 24mm-70mm is friendlier for general everyday use- portraits, landscapes, groupies, etc.

I have a 70-200 2.8 lens. Totally loving yung smooth and creamy bokeh nya and its capability to shoot 200mm at 2.8 aperture. It's really great for portraiture and sports photography. Yun nga lang, if you're looking for a lens that can be used for group shots, landscapes, and general everyday use then this lens would not cut it because of its focal range. Plus it's quite difficult to carry around given it's enormous weight and size.

In summary, both are great lenses bro. Performance-wise, you can't go wrong with either. You just have to know what are your needs or what photography field would you possibly want to venture in making the decision over which lens to purchase.

Good luck in choosing your new baby, bro. Thumbs Up
